Dynamic Relaxation - Iteration Steps

Iteration Steps

1. Set the initial kinetic energy and all nodal velocity components to zero:

2. Compute the geometry set and the applied load component:

3. Compute the residual:

4. Reset the residuals of constrained nodes to zero

5. Update velocity and coordinates:

6. Return to step 3 until the structure is in static equilibrium

    I honor most those to whom I show least honor; and where my soul moves with great alacrity, I forget the proper steps of ceremony.
