@SweetPeasHub Why does setting the User-defined Output Steps help the solver from converge instead of setting Plotting Grid or Polynomial Order? 

Best answer by skunks

better user-defined steps, for example 0, 0.1, 0,2 ... 1

a quote: "Simulate has a built-in automatic load step refinement in case of too big increments, but this should not be overstressed!
A good user load stepping can significantly increase performance!" (Dr. Jakel)

    Thank you for your kindly reply, sir. 

    For better convergence in the User-Defined Output Steps, should I choose Automatic or User-defined steps?
