I have some basic queries
1) What should be the boundary conditions for a structure that is mounted on shock mounts. Is it better to simulate the shock mounts by using the springs in all the three directions with defined stiffness and damping rather than assuming the fixed supports, for dynamic analysis.
2) Is it always desirable to fulfill the CFL condition to calculate the minimum time step or number of sub steps.
