Eigenfrequencies and buckling of a silicon beam (microscale)

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

I am trying to design a 3D beam that is fixed on both ends and observe its eigenfrequencies and critical factor for buckling. I have defined the material properties, and designed the geometry, and tried to solve it but the simulation shows a very distorted figure of the beam; the beam doesn't look smooth in the displacement, and every time I just "solve" again, it shows a slightly differently distorted figure. How do I get the result to be smooth and consistent? Attached is my file.
