I have a question about CoG shift in MOSES. is there a Command or method to do CoG Shift Variation during Lifting/Lowering/Upending Analysis in MOSES, without modify the SACS converted Model.

&lt;p&gt;I am not going to answer the question directly.&amp;nbsp; I always modify the SACS converted MODEL for lift/lower/upend/launch analysis.&amp;nbsp; The SACS files that are sent to me have load cases (LOADCN) that are for in-place analysis. When I turn those loads off I am modifying the model.&amp;nbsp; I am already modifying the converted model so modifying to change the COG is the next step.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;MOSES will always find the COG by where the weights are defined.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Most SACS files have load cases.&amp;nbsp; Those are controlled in the MOSES model via the load factors.&amp;nbsp; I use the search &amp;quot;smargin&amp;quot; to find them quickly.&amp;nbsp; The practice is to turn off one of these loads so that MOSES a load of equal weight can be defined via the &amp;quot;&amp;amp;weight -total&amp;quot; command.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I hope this helps.&lt;/p&gt;
