  I want to see longer time in explicit dynamic ballistic analys. But when i enter longer time for an end time i get time step is too small error. How can i solve this situation? Also when i increase the mesh quality why i get time step too small error?

  Time step is driven by the mesh quality and the characteristic length in an explicit analysis. You can add mass to speed up the solution. Please see this section from the theory manual.
