Applying Translations

From the Scenarios section of the action bar, click Applied Translation

.

Select the geometry supports in the model. You can select one or more faces.

Tip: Change the Selection method to select from a list of publications, connections, or FEM features, including virtual contact interactions.

Enter the Translation distance.

Choose whether the Orthogonal translations are Free or Fixed.

If you choose Fixed, no movement is allowed in the directions orthogonal to the direction of the translation. This effectively creates restraints on the orthogonal directions. For example, if the direction of translation is the global Y-axis direction, no movement is allowed in the global X- or Z-direction.
