For the option: | Do the following: |
|---|---|
Compute Modal Energy | If you want to compute modal energy during your vibration analysis, select this option. |
Normalized Coordinates | If you want normalized coordinates of the mode to be computed, select this option. |
Kinetic Energy | If you want to compute kinetic energy distribution, select this option. |
Strain Energy | If you want to compute strain energy distribution, select this option. |
Dissipative Energy | If you want to compute dissipative energy, select this option. |
Marker Modes | If you want to compute marker modes, select this option and provide marker names in the given textbox. |
Mode Range | Enter the range of modes you want to use in the calculation. If you leave these text boxes blank, Adams Vibration will use all modes. |
Frequency Range | Specify the frequency range in which in which Adams Linear provides energy table results. If you leave these text boxes blank, Adams Vibration will use all frequency range. |
Names | If selected, this will list the energy contribution results by Adams View object name instead of Adams Solver ID. |
Table Precision | Specify the number of decimal places to be used in the energy table output. |
Compute Energy per Mode | Enter the range of modes you want to use in the energy per mode calculation. If you leave these text boxes blank, Adams Vibration will use all modes. Percentages reported in table are computed with respect to the requested mode range. |
Compute Modal effective mass | Enter the range of modes you want to use in the modal effective mass calculation. If you leave these text boxes blank, Adams Vibration will use all modes. Percentages reported in table are computed with respect to the requested mode range. |
Reference Marker | Enter a marker name which will be used as the reference frame for computing effective mass. This is mandatory option for computing effective mass. |
