  Do you want to do mesh independence study with this model? try using tet mesh instead of hex and see if that helps.

  Convert the solid to a Beam in SpaceClaim and solve that instead.

  After extracting it into beam it turn into a line, then I have problem with assigning its fixed support and loading, how can I solve this?

  The line has a vertex at each end. Apply a Fixed Support at one vertex, apply a Force at the other vertex.
