struct.node.dynamic.timestep

Syntax

f := struct.node.dynamic.timestep(sn)

Returns the critical dynamic timestep for this structure node as of the last time the node was updated when dynamic calculations were active. Will return zero if this isn’t calculated for any reason (e.g., slaved, fixed in all DOFs, etc.).

Returns:

f - local node mechanical convergence

Arguments:

sn - pointer to a structure node
