    Modeling Unbalance force in solid rotating shaft

    I am working on a rotating shaft with an unbalanced disk. The center of unbalanced disk is located on the mid-span of the shaft with offset=r_shaft. I used SOLID186 to model the shaft. I defined one mass point (MASS21) on the center of the shaft in APDL to model the disk. I know that the...

    Applying surface force on solid cylinder in APDL

    I am trying to apply surface force on lateral surface of solid cylinder in vertical direction on my working plane, but not normal to the surface (pressure).I wonder how can I load my model in static test?

    Placing an Unbalance Mass on Hollow Shaft

    I am modelling a rotating shaft by SOLID 186 with an unbalance mass locating on mid span of the shaft. How can I model the unbalance mass(force) applying to the hollow shaft? I tried to use CONTACT/TARGET element to locate the mass(MASS 21) on the shaft axis but the results were erroneous. In my...

    Calculating and Applying Transient Unbalance Load

    Hello, I am modeling a rotating shaft with an unbalance force due to an eccentric disk at the middle by APDL. The rotation is prescribed as: omega(time)=A1*cos(pi*time/T1)/2 My questions are: 1-How should I calculate the unbalance force resulted by this rotation in transient analysis? I tried...

    Normalized Mode Shapes

    I am working on a spatial vibration project in which I need to extract the resultant normalized mode shapes in vector form. (e.g for a system with 6 D.O.F a eigenvector with 6 components.) Is there any option in ANSYS to extract the mode shapes in such format?

    Multiple Spherical Joint

    I would like to ask you about one of my problem which I am working on it related to my M.Sc thesis. I am simulating a cylinder or a rectangular prism attaching to 12 springs ( I applied LINK for the springs) and these springs are attached to the body at four point (at each point there are 3...
