Hi all,
I am new on Hyperworks suite and in particular on Hypermesh tool. I am trying to apply an acceleration load to a structure with a fixed restraint on one side. I have to model the inertial loads that are acting on the structure. I have defined properly the material, the properties, element type and constraints since a static analysis works.

There is anyone that can suggest what I have to do or a tutorial that I can follow (Hypermesh documentation is not so well defined for this case of problem).

Thanks in advance
