-
In the Torque Law Excitation dialog box,click the
Support box, and select a 3D part or a subproduct in
the tree, or in the 3D area.
The other products are grayed out, and the 3D parts can be edited.
-
Click the
Application box and select a point on the
support.
The coordinates of the application point appear under
Coordinates.
-
Select a frame based on an axis system:
Option | Description |
---|
Local Frame |
Specifies the coordinate values according to the local coordinate system of the
support. |
---|
Global Frame | Specifies the coordinate values according to the global coordinate system. |

-
Click the
Direction box and select an edge or a line on
the support product.
In the
3D area,
the excitation is represented by a colored arrow in the product's direction
frame (x,y, and z axis).
- Optional:
To apply the torque to the opposite direction, click
Reverse Direction under
Direction.
-
Select the intensity of the torque under
Magnitude.
- Optional:
To specify the magnitude using a formula, right-click the
Magnitude box and select Edit
formula.
A formula allows you to include a time parameter so the torque magnitude can
vary during the simulation.
-
Click
OK to save the excitation.
The torque law excitation is created and added under the
Excitations node in the
tree.
