-
From the Loads section of the action bar, click Applied Rotational Velocity
 .
- Optional:
Enter a descriptive
Name.
-
Select the geometry supports in the model.
A rotational velocity can be applied to one or more points, edges, or faces. You can also select a coupling connection, rigid body, or rigid surface; the velocity is applied to the reference point for the feature.
You can apply the rotational velocity to a secondary base by selecting Sim feature as the type of support, then selecting the appropriate displacement restraint from the window that appears. - Enter the Rotational velocity magnitude.
- Select a DOF representing the axis of rotation for the velocity within the selected axis system.
- Select one of the following as the Axis system definition:
| Option | Description |
|---|
| Global |
Aligns the local feature triad with the global coordinate system. | | Implicit |
Aligns the axis system to the transformed axis system applied on the support. | | Local |
Aligns the local feature triad with a selected axis system in the model. If you select this axis system, you must also specify whether the axis system is
Cartesian or
Cylindrical. |
|---|
| Specify |
Orients the local feature triad directly. Right-click the feature triad glyph on the model, and select an orientation tool. |
|---|
- Optional: Enter a Scale factor that is applied to the magnitude in each step.
- Select an
Amplitude that
defines the magnitude during the
step.
- Optional: For harmonic response steps, specify the Phase angle for the amplitude curve. The phase angle determine the real (in-phase) and imaginary (out-of-phase) parts of the magnitude. A phase angle of 0ยบ indicates a completely real (non-imaginary) value.
