Time Step Size guidelines are generally the same as for the
individual solvers; a few things to watch for:
Make sure the individual solvers converge well using the
selected time step
As noted earlier, if you have a bump at the start of a
transient, a smaller time step can make this worse, not
better
If the forces/displacements are changing a lot from one
time step to the next, consider reducing the time step
but too small a time step may start to resolve high
frequency structural modes that are not of interest
