-
From the Loads section of the action bar, click Applied Translational Acceleration
 .
- Optional:
Enter a descriptive
Name.
-
Select the geometry supports in the model.
You can apply the translation acceleration to a displacement restraint created as a secondary base in a frequency step. Select Sim feature as the type of support, then select the appropriate displacement restraint from the window that appears. - Enter the Translation magnitude.
- Select a Degree of Freedom representing the direction of the acceleration within the selected axis system.
- 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 value
with no imaginary component.
