Computation Time Rigid Object

Hi! 

 

If I add a rigid shell object with around 2000 trias to my simulation in order connect two components, would this slow down my simulation much? Or does a rigid object not really has influence on my computation time. 

 

Best, J

    It does affect the time step of your simulation.

    Hi Prakash, 

     

    Ok. It only affects my time step. But it does not affect my computational time (time per time step) a lot?

    TIme step and also simulation time as well.
