Constrain displacement of faces, edges, vertices, or spots in Modal analysis.
- In the Project Tree, click on a Modal analysis branch to open the Analysis Workbench.
- On the workbench toolbar, click the (Constraints) icon.
- Specify which type of entity will have constraints applied.
- On the modeling window, click to select specific parts on the model.
- Optional: If applying to Faces, you can select the Add tangent faces check box.
-
Specify the coordinate system to which the force/displacement will be
applied.
The default is set to the Global coordinate system, which is automatically created upon geometry import.
- Specify an axes along which constraints will be assigned.
- Click OK.
