Hi Gbor,
First, thanks for your answer,
Your assumption's right : I'm performing a frequency response analysis since i'm not interrested in transient effects.
I've tried "the base acceleration mode", unfortunately, I get an error message which says "ground excitation force is not avalaible"...
I'm pretty new to Algor (with the linear dynamics extender), on which I've spent a few weeks.I easily got used to modal analysis and had good results.
I'm now trying to apply a pair of harmonic forces which frequency is a natural one.
I want to set the amplitude of the forces and a damping in...
I really agree with you Chris, considering CAD softwares offering crapy useless FEA software. This is marketing...
However, FEA packages can sometimes offer some good in-build CAD (Abaqus does, for sure). I've done several geometry modification with Abaqus allthough it was on an imported STEP...
Hi GBor,
I used to run steady state direct dynamic calculation on Abaqus, because I didn't achieve to make it with the "submodal" way.
I used to run dicrete frequency response : calculation with complex displacement calculated on 360° phase for each frequency step.
But modal response is better...
The most important for me is to perform some steady-state dynamic analysis. Defining damping has taken a lot of time (by using Rayleigh damping)to fit result with measurements.
For this reason using some input files I created in the past using Abaqus CAE would be great.
Here's the point: Algor...
Hi,
I'm looking for a software that could match for working on ultrasonic transducers.
I used to perform dynamic analysis with Abaqus (displacement vs frequency) using Piezoelectric elements.
I also used Ansys Designspace for modal analysis and it's been great for CAD assemblies, unlike Abaqus...
