Hi,
You mentioned that the desired Z displacement is not met until approximately 9 time steps. Ensure that the time step used in the simulation is appropriate for capturing the desired displacement within a reasonable number of time steps.
To debug the issue further, you can add additional printf statements within the conditional blocks to check whether the conditions for applying external forces are being met during the simulation.
