Introduce Preconditioning in BeamDyn to Reduce Start-Up Transients and Allow for Large Time Steps #81

Closed jjonkman closed 5 years ago

jjonkman commented 6 years ago

BeamDyn often requires small time steps that could be increased if BeamDyn is given better initial conditions that reduce start-up transients. Addressing this problem may be aided by the currently BeamDyn linearization effort currently under development.

@bjonkman I heard you may be currently working on this. Is that true?

bjonkman commented 6 years ago

Yes, @rafmudaf, this is already included in the set of changes currently in my f/Envision branch.
