Benefits: An option to select only unstable modes for output in a complex eigenvalue extraction analysis reduces the size of the resulting output database.
Description: In a complex eigenvalue extraction analysis you can set a cutoff value; only complex modes with the real part of the eigenvalue higher than the cutoff value are written to the output database (.odb) file. The default cutoff value is 0.0. Specifying a cutoff value can significantly reduce the size of the output database file and improve performance.
