Piezoelectric Transformer Electric Load Simulation

I am having trouble simulating a piezoelectric transformer with a resistor load attached to it. I believe that I need to integrate the Eletrical Circuit physics with the Piezoeletric physics, and by setting the boundary condition "Terminal Circuit" I should be able to attach the circuit to the device (and also using the External I-Terminal or External I vs U in the circuit physics). However, the solution is not converging (causing an error) so I would like to know if there is anything wrong with my model.
Gratefully,
Fabricio Cravo
PS: I attached a few simulation pictures.
