Hi

I have a simple structure,that must apply acceleration for example 1g.my actual condition in experiment is a shaker usage for apply this.
How can I apply this to structure?
I use GUI that apply this to one element,but this is correct that it is applied to one element no to all structure?
if yes,how must select this element?

If you want to apply a 1g static load to the structure, use the ACEL command (details in Help).
If you are doing something like a 1g sine sweep, you could do a spectrum analysis. An example is in 6.4 of the Structural Analysis Guide for ANSYS 13.0.
