hello,
I am trying to solve a simple cantilever beam (2D) in ansys.
I wish to find out the critical time-step that can be used to explicitly solve a transient problem.
I started with modal analysis to determine the maximum natural frequency of the model. I then computed dt < 2/Wmax.
I use this dt with beta = 0.0 and gamma = 0.25 (Newmark parameters). However the solution is unstable.
I am including my apdl script with this post.
