1.6 Dynamics analysis

< DF_SOLVER:: START DYNAMICS ANALYSIS >

<DESCRIPTION> ANSYS Motion solver starts the dynamics analysis.

< NUMERICAL DAMPING = 1.0000e+000 >

<DESCRIPTION> This shows a numerical damping. The default value is 1.0 and this means that
full damping is applied on this system. When this value is near to zero, the simulation can be failed
in a large stepsize. ANSYS Motion recommends using a value over 0.2.

<DESCRIPTION> This shows a solver information. From left side, time, stepsize, accumulated
norm, and the numbers of residual evaluation, Jacobian, time iteration, Newton Raphson fail,
integration fail and accumulated iteration of PCG solver are displayed. If PCG solver is not used,
IPCG returns 0.
