I know the topic of rates comes up fairly often, but I feel I need a sanity check. I’m in the planning stages in starting up a one person engineering business in Seattle. Services will include FEA, structural dynamics, heat exchanger and thermal analysis, and custom numerical modeling...
Thank you for your responses. I have just finished a modal frequency analysis using NEiNastran. I'm trying to convince the individuals, who requested the analysis, that the mode shape "displacements" do not equal the displacements they'll see in their real application.
Thanks again for your...
Hello,
The results of a modal frequency analysis typically include a mode shape with each modal frequency. Most FEA packages can plot out displacements values of the mode shape. In a frequency analysis, there is no input load. So my question is:
What do these displacement values mean? and...
