Vibration -> Create ODS Analysis
Allows you create an ODS analysis from a time-domain simulation. This enables you to animate operational deflection shapes.
 
For the option:
Do the following:
ODS Analysis Name
Specify the name of the ODS analysis to create.
Time Domain Analysis
Enter the name of the time domain (dynamic or transient) analysis that you want to use to perform an ODS analysis.
Time Start
Enter the starting time of the time domain analysis to compute the ODS data. Default is 0.0
Time End
Enter the ending time of the time domain analysis to compute the ODS data.
(Segment option)
Specify the Number of Segments or Points per Segment in the menu option box.
(Overlap option)
Specify the number of Overlap Points or Overlap % in the menu option box.
Window
Specify window option from the pull down menu.
The rest of the dialog box shows the resulting window parameters computed from the settings above for the ODS analysis.
