Hi
I have a question regarding the dt timestep of an impulse load as discussed in the following video:
He uses dt=10ms. If we set dt=8 or 9 or 11 we get widely different values for Fmax.
Thus, a lot of such impulse loading boils down to the correct selection of dt.
I was wondering if anyone knows of a way or a more advanced method for reverse engineering a system to obtain dt? I have a system that includes a dt from impulse loading and as discussed above get very different results for small changes in dt.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Graham
