NVH has the following boundary condition tools:
- Auto-Contact
- Quickly and easily create one or more contact interfaces at once between several
parts of your model. This tool is only available when the OptiStruct user profile is loaded.
- Card Editor
- Select the entities that are viewed in the card image subpanel.
- Constraints
- Place constraints or enforced displacements on a model.
- Contact Surfaces
- Create and modify contactsurf entities.
- Contour Loads Utility
- Create contour plots of applied loads and boundary conditions contained within load
collectors.
- Delete
- Delete data from a model database, preview and delete empty collectors and preview
and delete unused property collectors, material collectors, or curves.
- Equations
- Create, review and update equations.
- Flux
- Apply concentrated fluxes to your model.
- Forces
- Create concentrated forces.
- Interfaces
- Create and modify interfaces.
- Loads on Geom
- Map loads or boundary conditions from geometrical entities (loads on geometry) to
the associated FE mesh entities (loads on mesh).
- Loads Summation
- Creates a summary of the loads (node-based forces or moments and element-based
pressures) applied to a model.
- Moments
- Create concentrated moments.
- Organize
- Allows you to (re)organize your database by copying or moving data (entities) among
collectors or includes.
- Pressures
- Create concentrated pressures.
- Renumber
- Renumber entities.
- Systems
- Create rectangular, cylindrical and spherical coordinate systems.
- Temperatures
- Create temperature constraints.
