About the half-step residual tolerance in Abaqus

ABAQUS

This days, I am working on the dynamics analysis using the Abaqus. the implicit dynamic integration method in abaqus is HHT-alpha. I found that a very strange parameter about the method is the half-step residual tolerance . I don't know the parameter is whether important or not and how to determine it.

thank you very much :)

i am a new learner of abaqus please help me

I am a new Ph.D student. I want to solve 1-D transient flow equation with Dirichlet B.C.by meshfree method(Point collocation) with MQ-RBF (q=0.5).I've taken 11 nodes in a domain with 5 nodes in the support domain.How to take 5 nodes for 1st,2nd,10th and 11th node?How shape parameter α(alpha) is to be considered?

A challenge to Mr. Koenemann

challenge

I am sure that several of you have followed Mr. Koenemann's posts with some interests. For some it might be entertainment, and for others it might be like watching a car wreck. In any case, several iMechanicians have attempted to convince Falk that his theories do not make sense. We have all failed miserably at that task. I am perhaps a bit slower than most, but it is clear to me that Mr. Koenemann will not be convinced by any physical or mathematical arguments.
