I am using adaptive time steps for a simulation.

Min. time step= 0.0001S
Max. time step= 0.05S

My problem is, now the simulation is running around 5000 time steps, but it uses only 0.0001S for all steps.

Why the solver does not change the time step (its own time step)?

(I used this much of smaller time step as always solver diverged with larger time steppes, even for 0.001S)
