Tried to run a random FEA with Workbench 14.0. There is a problem getting response psd on a mass element via remote point. The mass is attached with bonded contact MPC's and when you probe response psd you get bogus results. I created an apdl input file and changed the mass element connection to apdl rigid region....only then did I get correct results.
Anyone else see this problem? There is obviously a serious bug in WB 14.0
