Dynamic (explicit) to Static (standard) analysis

Submitted by apin87@hotmail.com on Sun, 03/02/2014 - 08:15

Greetings ,

i had successfully running my model in the step with dynamic (explicit).

BUT once i change my model with step in static (standard) then the job stop running in the half way with the error of

"too many increment in this step etc".. i had try decrease my small increment size to 0.001 but it still failed.. your help highly appreciated.

how can i solve this problems??

between, will it the result between Dynamic (explicit) to Static (standard) analysis difference??

Publication citation metrics and h-index for Australian Universities

opinion

h-index

For similar reasons outlined by Zhigang’s post node/2345 I
have found it necessary to find comparisons in publication citation
metrics/indices whilst in Academic employment. Much has been discussed about
the appropriate use of these metrics and the arguments on the benefits and
drawbacks are both compelling. Whatever your opinion, it seems that for the
foreseeable future these publication citation metrics are here to stay.
