How can I use different damping ratios in the same UDEC model, simultaneously?

18 November 2015 1 5K Report

I am working on dynamic modeling using UDEC. My work contains different type of dynamic processes, simultaneously. This kind of dynamic modeling needs to different damping type (and/or the same damping function with different coefficients). How can I define proportional damping to run this code?

Thanks.
