Stiffness of the weak spring

  Hello:
  
  We all know that adding the weak spring can prevent the instability of the model. I know the unbalanced force that the weak spring can take could be neglectable but I think it should have a certain range. So I'm wondering how much unbalanced force can the weak spring takes? In other words, what is the default stiffness of the weak spring? Thank you.

  Hi You can check the same in solution information for default setting.By entering the values manually,you can specify desired stiffness.
  Ideally you should avoid playing with this setting.
