    I suggest you to modify this title and rename it with some shorter one. In Radioss, there isn't a unit system panel, so you have to put consistent units in all your model (mesh, material, property, timestep, cards ecc). With timestep you subdivide your analysis as frames for a video, so you have to know how much resolution you need. Can you share your engine and model files?
