Assign values for mass, center of mass, and moments of inertia to override the calculated values.
To open this dialog box:
- Click and then, in the Mass Properties dialog box, click Override Mass Properties.
Mass
Override mass |
Sets a value to override the calculated value for the mass of the model. |
Center of Mass
Override center of mass |
Sets values to override the calculated values for the center of mass of the model. |
X, Y, Z |
Sets coordinate values. |
As defined in |
Sets the coordinate system. Select one:
model coordinate system (default)
|
Uses the default coordinate system of the part or assembly.
|
user_defined
|
Uses a coordinate system previously defined by you.
|
|
Moments of Inertia
Override moments of inertia |
Sets values to override the calculated values for the moments of inertia of the model. Select an entry method and set values. |
Enter principal axes and principal moments of inertia |
Principal axes orientation |
Sets values for:
|
Principal moments of inertia |
Sets values for:
|
Enter reference frame and moments of inertia |
Reference Frame |
Select one:
Center of Mass/ComponentXYZ
|
|
model coordinate system (default)
|
Uses the default coordinate system of the part or assembly.
|
user_defined
|
Uses a coordinate system previously defined by you.
|
|
Principal moments of inertia |
Set values for:
Jxx, Jxy, Jxz
|
Jyx, Jyy, Jyz
|
Jzx, Jzy, Jzz
|
|
The sum of the moments of inertia about two perpendicular axes must be greater than or equal to the moment of inertia about the third axis.

If the model has more than one configuration, select one of the following:
This configuration |
Applies the overrides to the active configuration only. |
All configurations |
Applies the overrides to all configuration in the model. |
Specify configurations |
Applies the overrides to the active configuration and any other configurations you select from the list. You can click:
All
|
Selects all the configurations listed.
|
Reset
|
Reverts to the active configuration.
