C++/CLI 
CWBaseExcitation^ AddSelectedBaseExcitation( 
&   System.int NType,
&   System.String^ SFixtureName,
&   System.int NUnits,
&   System.int BDir1,
&   System.double DVal1,

&   System.double DVal3,
&   [Out] System.int ErrorCode
) 

Parameters

NType
Type of excitation as defined in swsBaseExcitationType_e
SFixtureName
Model entity to which the restraint is applied 
NUnits

If NType is ... Then units are as defined in ...
swsBaseExcitationType_e.swsBaseExcitationType_Displacement swsLinearUnit_e
swsBaseExcitationType_e.swsBaseExcitationType_Velocity swsVelocityUnit_e
swsBaseExcitationType_e.swsBaseExcitationType_Acceleration swsAccelerationUnit_e

BDir1
1 to add excitation along plane direction 1, 0 to not
DVal1
Excitation along plane direction 1 (see Remarks)
BDir2
1 to add excitation along plane direction 2, 0 to not
DVal2
Excitation along plane direction 2 (see Remarks)
BDir3
1 to add excitation along normal to plane, 0 to not
DVal3
Excitation along normal to the plane (see Remarks)
ErrorCode

Error code as defined in swsRestraintError_e

Return Value

ICWBaseExcitation

Remarks

Set negative values in DVal1, DVal2, and DVal3 to indicate reverse directions.

If this is a random vibration dynamic study, then DVal1, DVal2, and DVal3 are the Power Spectral Densities of the specified NType.
