Apply a uniformly distributed rotational inertia load over the volumes of the parts
in an assembly.
-
In the Project Tree, open
the Analysis Workbench.
-
In the workbench toolbar, click .
-
Specify where the translational inertia will be applied in one of the following
ways:
- Activate the Apply to whole assembly radio button
to apply to all parts in the assembly.
- Activate the Apply to selected parts radio
button, then select desired parts in the modeling window.
-
Use the radio buttons to specify either edge or cylinder selection.
-
In the modeling window, click to select specific parts on the model.
This specifies the location of the axis of rotation.
Tip: You
can fine-tune the location using the X, Y, and X values under Origin and
Direction, or dragging the ball in the model.
- Optional:
If necessary, select the Flip axis radio button to
change the way the axis points.
-
Specify the numerical values and Units for Acceleration along axis, Angular
velocity, and Angular acceleration.
-
Click OK.
