SS-T: 3030 Distributed Mass
Apply distributed mass in SimSolid.
- Purpose
- SimSolid performs meshless structural
analysis that works on full featured parts and assemblies, is tolerant of
geometric imperfections, and runs in seconds to minutes. In this tutorial,
you will do the following:
- Learn how to apply distributed mass by total area or mass per area.
- Model Description
-
The following model file is needed for this tutorial:
- DistributedMass.ssp
Open Project
- Start a new SimSolid session.
-
On the main window toolbar, click Open Project
.
- In the Open project file dialog, choose DistributedMass.ssp
- Click OK.
Option 1: Apply Distributed Mass by Total Mass
This is one of two methods for applying distributed mass. To instead apply using mass per area, see Option 2: Apply Distributed Mass by Mass Per Area.
