Free Vibration of a plate

Hi,

I am working in the structural mechanics module and I have given a time varying load (square wave) in the central region.

However, I wish to give just one cycle of the load (say for 2 seconds) and analyse the displacement of the plate for the next 60 seconds (I do not intend to give any load for the next 58 seconds). I have used the "time dependent" study for this and have typed out "range(0,0.1,59)" in the "Times" option. I am still getting weird results (the plate oscillates only for the 2 seconds and remains stationary for the rest of the period).

Am I using the correct "Study"? If not then which study is used for this and how do I proceed?

Thanks in Advance.
