Why can changing the dt= time step, effect the non-linear time history results for x-displacements?

I hope someone can provide insight.

Thanks,

btw, who needs the pillow when you can directly sleep on the vibrations text. (common undergrad student)

Hartog => too squishy
Inman => too hard
Rao => just right

I wonder if anyone padded their cover's....maybe the fluid mechanics text somehow acted as a water-bed type pillow?
{plz ignore me if im "on cr$ck", I just finished writing a shit load of code}
