  1. The mass added during the computation may come from the option /DT/NODA/CST, /DT/INTER/CST or /DT/CST_AMS.
  2. A typical usecase is to perform a quasi-static load case in a first run (<runname>_0001.rad) with a high time step, then reset the added mass of the first run with this option, and perform a drop test in the second run (<runname>_0002.rad) with a smaller time step.
