Data

Description

Scale factor on nodal stability time step for shells.

Minimum time step.

Comments

1./DT/SHNOD/CST can be set in the RADIOSS Engine file, in order to use an imposed nodal time step for SHELL and SH3N elements sub-cycling: mass will be added if the nodal time step for shells sub-cycling.

is less than

2./DT/SHNOD set different time step for all shells (SHELL and SH3N) and shells only. Time step parameters of the rest of the model are defined in /DT/NODA. /DT/NODA is required, if /DT/SHNOD is used.
