Excavator Bucket

This design is for fun. I decided to try how light a bucket can be if designed with a low grade ASME A36 steel plate and still withstand a high load. So, I subjected bucket to about 196133 N force of load. The static FEA results are in the images. There are some singularities in the model. If you could run the FEA and let me know what they are and how you fix them, I would be incredibly happy.Sorry, I modeled in 2023 solidworks. Unfortunately, you may need to have this version to be able to open the CAD file.
