Hi all,
I'm new in ANSYS, and I want to know if it's possible to obtain the accelerations from a harmonic response analysis.
I have a 3D shape of an exhaust pipe and I have to make the analysis with an initial displacement in one point and extract the accelerations in different points with a frequency range.

Heeeelp, I made the harmonic analysis but I can't obtain the acceleration

anyone knows how to do it?

Cheers!!

Acceleration is the second derivative of displacement and your displacement function is sinusoidal with respect to some frequency. Acceleration should be easy to calculate knowing that!
 
Thanks for all,

I wonderig if this was the solution, and I hope that is it!

thanks for the answer
