I entered my initial time step of 2.75e-5 using the control implicit general card; however, Ls dyna chooses to evaluate the problem with a larger time step. I invoked DTMax as recommended by the ls-dyna user&#8217;s manual but the software appears to ignore it. Is there another way to make Ls dyna use a particular time step throughout the analysis run time?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-249492","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_subscription":["16315","13694","338491"],"_bbp_author_ip":["23.56.168.190"]," _bbp_last_reply_id":["0"]," _bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_btv_view_count":["4829"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_status":["publish"],"_bbp_topic_id":["249492"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27814"],"_bbp_engagement":["13694","16315","338491"],"_bbp_voice_count":["3"],"_bbp_reply_count":["8"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["349037"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["349037"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2024-02-05 08:41:51"]},"test":"kozegbeemail-sc-edu"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/249492","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/249492\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=249492"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
