Loads and Result Options for Dynamic Analysis
Loads
Time-varying
force and pressure
Initial
conditions defined as a finite acceleration, velocity or displacement
at time t =0
Uniform
and selected base excitation defined as time-varying acceleration, velocity
or displacement
Peak
amplitudes of force and pressure versus frequency
Uniform
and selected base excitation defined as peak amplitudes of acceleration,
velocity or displacement versus frequency.
Power
spectral density (psd) curves of force and pressure
Uniform
and selected base excitation defined as psd of acceleration, velocity
or displacement
Result Options
Contour
plots of displacements, accelerations, velocities, stresses, strains for
a specified solution step, or extreme values across all solution steps.
Response
graphs of displacement, velocities, and acceleration at specified locations.
For random vibrations, you can plot rms values for the whole frequency
range or psd versus frequency.
Listing
displacements, accelerations, velocities, stresses, strains, and reaction
forces.
