Solver Parameter Tab

 

This page defines parameters that affect RecurDyn/Solver.

Figure 1  Simulation dialog box [Solver Parameter]

 

     Maximum Time Step: Defines the maximum time step of the integrator during the simulation.

     Initial Time Step: Defines the initial time step of the integrator during the simulation.

     Error Tolerance: Defines the error term used during the simulation process.

     Numerical Damping: Defines the damping ratio for the generalized alpha method (zero indicates no damping and one indicates maximum damping)

     Match Solving Stepsize with Report Step: If you check this option, the solving step and report step are coincided.

     Match Simulation End Time with User Input: If you check this option, the simulation is finished at the user-defined End Time. (The default is checked.)
