kmgraju Senior Member Govindaraju Join Date: Apr 2010 Posts: 209 Rep Power: 17	Dear all I would like to clarify the time steps. I have a sinusoidal function and the frequency is 1 Hz. I did the transient simulation for one cycle one of my friends told me and insist me to do the multiple cycle simulations.Is it necessary to do the simulations for multiple cycles?. If I do the multiple cycles the solution time is too large. Is there any way to short cut. Thank you Regards
