Hi Pranshu, 

What is the actual time you are considering?

Since the strain rate is high and no time information is given in your description, we cannot recommend you

Generally, using the explicit is good, but time is important. Both methods account for time, inertial, and damping effects, but the computing framework will change (implicit vs. explicit).

cheers, ram
