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

Famous quotes containing the word steps:
“They were steps for me, and I climbed up over them—to do so I needed to go on past them. But they supposed I wanted to settle down on them.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
