The settings that this solver accepts are given by a dictionary, with the following key-value pairs:

Name	Type	Description	Default
`unsteady`	`bool`	If `True` it will be a dynamic problem and the solver will look for the `.dyn.h5` file that contains the time varying input to the problem.	`True`
`orientation`	`list(float)`	Initial attitude of the structure given as the quaternion that parametrises the rotation from G to A frames of reference.	`[1.0, 0, 0, 0]`
`for_pos`	`list(float)`	Initial position of the A FoR.	`[0.0, 0, 0]`
