我有这个异常，我不明白为什么会抛出该异常，或者应该如何处理。

try {
    os.writeObject(element);
} catch (IOException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
}

哪里element是一个TransformGroup包含一些其他TransformGroups类的Atom的一个实例：

public class Atom extends Group implements Serializable{
    float pozX,pozY;
    Group group= new Group();   
    Color3f blue = new Color3f(new Color(255));
    Color3f black = new Color3f(new Color(0));
    Sphere AtSph=new Sphere();

    public Atom(final float WEIGHT, final int BOUNDS,final float radius,Color3f color)
    {
        AppSetting ap= new AppSetting(color, black);
        AtSph=new Sphere(radius,1,100,ap);
    }
}

注意：AppSetting（在Atom类中）只是扩展Appearance的自定义类。
