Hi
I'm running the dynamic analysis... However, I just found that some additional "mass" in the model were modeled as the "Load"..
It's ok for static analsyis. But for dynamic analsyis, can we simply convert or define these "loads" as mass input?
thanks in advance!
Hi Shaw,
Yes, you can. If your model includes some mass which were defined as Z direction gravity load for static strength analysis, you can choose to convert it to mass for dynamic mode shape analysis. This can be defined in the dynamic mode analysis option -mass option - convert load cases to mass
