Dan,

The files are output from a finite element model and a file for each time
step is ~41 MB. My attachment size limit is 25 MB. Could I share it with
you through something like GoogleDrive?

A cursory glance through the files with a text editor doesn't show any
significant differences between the time steps that are good and those that
throw the error.
