Reviewing modal analysis results
Natural frequencies and mode shapes are the primary results for a modal solution.
, The results are ordered by frequency, with the lowest natural
frequency being the first mode shape, the next highest being the
second mode, and so on.
, The normal modes represent dynamic states in which the elastic and
inertial forces are balanced when no external loads are applied.
The magnitude of the mode shapes is arbitrary.
, The amplitude of the displacement is not significant, but the
relative displacement of the nodes is significant.
, Mode shapes help you determine what load locations and directions
will excite the structure.
如何判断模态的频率
The first 6 modes have extremely low frequencies. These are rigid body modes. Mode 7 represents
the first flexible mode with a natural frequency of about 133 Hz. 线性曲屈分析
Buckling analysis introduction
Buckling analysis:
, Determines buckling loads and buckled mode shapes.
o A buckling load is the critical load at which a structure
becomes unstable.
o A buckled mode shape is the characteristic shape associated
with a structure's buckled response.
, Identifies the critical load factor, which is the value that can
be multiplied by the applied load to cause buckling.
Linear buckling assumptions
The buckling analysis uses linear theory. The following assumptions and limitations apply:
, The deflections prior to buckling are small.
, The reference equilibrium configuration is the initial geometry of
the part.
, The response of the structure prior to buckling exhibits a linear
relationship between stress and strain.
, Post-buckling behavior is not predicted

ANSYS Buckling
ABAQUS Buckling Perturbation Substep
Using materials for a buckling analysis Material types that can be used in a buckling analysis include:
, Isotropic
, Orthotropic
, Anisotropic
Defining boundary conditions for a buckling analysis
For a buckling analysis:
1. Define constraints. Constrain the model as you would for a linear
static analysis.
2. Apply loads. The load set can contain more than one load type (Force,
Pressure), but every load will be scaled by the load factor. A
magnitude of 1 is often used when a single load type will cause the
model to buckle.
Reviewing buckling analysis results
For NX Nastran results, buckling analysis results are listed as:
, A set of static analysis results for the buckling loads subcase.
, A set of modes for the buckling methods subcase.
o Each mode has an eigenvalue (load factor) listed.
o The applied load multiplied by the buckling load factor is
the load at which the part will buckle.
o The first mode has the lowest buckling load factor and is
usually the mode of most interest.
o If the buckling load factor is below 1, the part has buckled.
如果eigenvalue小于1,那么这个模型就已经发生曲屈。
The critical load is the product of the applied load and the eigenvalue for Mode 1.比如在本例中施加的载荷为1N,而Mode 1的对应值为
1380,那么这个临界载荷为1x1380N.
Nonlinear static analysis introduction The nonlinear solution types NLSTATIC 106 and ADVNL 601, 106 are capable of simulating the following conditions: geometric nonlinear, material plasticity, and hyperelasticity.
This introduction presents two of these nonlinear conditions:
, Material plasticity – Material data is entered that describes both
the linear elastic and the plastic yield portion of the stress
strain curve.
, Geometric nonlinear – Pressure loads and element stiffness are
updated as the solution iterates. Large geometry displacements and
rotation are supported.
NLSTATIC 106 and ADVNL 601, 106 solutions can include material plasticity and geometric conditions separately or simultaneously. Supported nonlinear solution types

ABAQUS General Analysis
Whether to use a nonlinear solution
An SESTATIC 101 linear static solution:
, Calculates the element stiffness (K) matrix once at the beginning
of the solution.
, Assumes Hooke's law, Force = K U, to calculate displacements (U).
, Does not account for large displacements and rotation.
, Will not update pressure load directions.
An NLSTATIC 106 or ADVNL 601, 106 solution with geometric nonlinear conditions:
, Iterates (迭代)to follow a nonlinear force/displacement path.
, Periodically (定期的)updates the element stiffness matrix while
following the nonlinear force/displacement path.
, Uses a strain definition which accounts for large displacements and
rotations.
, Uses the current configuration of a deformed structure to determine
the direction of pressure loads.
A stiffness change may be a result of both geometry and material nonlinear effects if both are included in the analysis.

Type Description
Enforced The location of an enforced motion excitation on the motion model. This is a location only; you define the actual location excitation load after you solve the solution.
The solver generates constraint modes, equivalent
attachment modes, and effective masses based on these
locations.
Create enforced motion locations in the Constraints
container in the Simulation Navigator.
Type Description
Nodal Force The location of a nodal force excitation on the model.
location This is a location only; you define the actual
excitation after you solve the solution.
The solver generates attachment modes based on these
locations.
Create nodal force locations in the Loads container in
the Simulation Navigator.
Static For Transient events, a constant load for scaling the offset load results (for example, a gravity load for use with
concentrated mass elements, or a distributed wind load
on the structure).
Create static offset loads in the Subcase – Static
Offset container in the Simulation Navigator.
After you solve the solution and create an event, the
Static Offset node appears in the Simulation Navigator
under the event node. You can exclude the static offset
results from the response evaluation by right-clicking
the Static Offset node and choosing Deactivate.
Stress A differential stiffness to account for the weakening stiffening of a structure due to stress. You can use this load to load pre-stress structures that are thin in one or two
dimensions, such as shell or cable-like structures
with small initial stiffness, and large membrane
loads, such as a drum head with initial tension.
The solver uses these loads to augment the stiffness
in the normal mode calculations. It calculates the
stress stiffness and combines it with the linear
stiffness and then uses the combination of these two
matrices to solve the normal modes eigenvalue problem.
Create stress stiffening loads in the Subcase – Stress

Dynamic load A load you can scale after solving the modal solution.
The solver generates a load set and distributed

assign a scaling function when you create an

Dynamic loads are necessary for applying
distributed-load excitations and can also be used as

Sensors allow you to evaluate displacement, velocity, acceleration, and reaction force. Each node you select in your sensor definition generates a response function. Sensors are stored with names that reflect the node and direction in which the sensor evaluates.

Flexible bodies workflow
Advanced Simulation steps
1. Create a finite element model and NX Nastran SEMODES 103 – Flexible
Body solution.
2. Mesh the flexible component and define material properties.
3. Use a 1D Connection (spider element) or other constraint elements
to define the component's connection points to the mechanism.
4. Add Fixed Boundary Degrees of Freedom constraints to define
connection degrees of freedom.
5. Add Free Boundary Degrees of Freedom constraints to define load
degrees of freedom.
6. Solve the modal solution. A RecurDyn Rflex input (.rfi) file is
generated for the flexible link.
7. Repeat steps 1–6 for each additional flexible component in the
mechanism.
Motion Simulation steps
1. Create a Flexible Body Dynamics motion simulation.
2. Create flexible links on the flexible components. Associate
each .rfi file with each flexible link.
3. Create a Flexible Body solution and add the flexible links to the
solution.
4. Solve the mechanism.
5. Run Animation to view the combined rigid body and flexible body
motion.
Connecting the flexible body FEM to the mechanism FEM file, you must define the points where the flexible body is connected to the motion mechanism. These connection points must be defined at the origin point of every joint, bushing, force, torque, spring, or damper motion object on the flexible body. Although you can use any element type to define these connection points, typically you will use a 1D Connection (spider element)
Make sure the connection node is at a location that creates balanced loading. Defining connection and load degrees of freedom In Advanced Simulation, in the Simulation file, you must add special constraints to define the connection and load degrees of freedom for the flexible body.
, At each connection node where the flexible body will be connected
to the mechanism through a joint or bushing in Motion Simulation,
create a Fixed Boundary Degrees of Freedom constraint to define the
connection degrees of freedom.
, At each connection node where a force, torque, spring, or damper
will be applied to the flexible body in Motion Simulation, create
a Free Boundary Degrees of Freedom constraint to define the load
degrees of freedom.
求解器中的特殊设置
主要有以下两项:在输出中要选定 stress;及要设定 模态数。
1.Connect the flexible body FEM to the mechanism(1D Connection (spider element))
2.Define connection degrees of freedom。使用 固定边界自由度。 :To ensure the
correct local stiffness at the connection points, always set all DOF to On when creating Fixed Boundary Degrees of Freedom or Free Boundary Degrees of Freedom constraints in a flexible body analysis.
When you created the connection recipe for each spider element, you placed the independent node at the bore center of the hole rather than at the arc center of the edge of the hole. The reason for this placement is to ensure balanced loading.
3. Solve the model
You will solve the model to generate the .rfi file that contains the reduced matrices that represent the component's dynamic behavior. This file will be used later in the activity when you solve the Flexible Body solution in Motion Simulation.
4.进入运动仿真,然后改变 环境 选择 柔性体动力学 ,引入前面求解的 rfi 文件。然后将
此加入到解算
之中。如果在运动仿真中还使用了驱动(函数类型),那么也应将其加入
到解算方案中 进行求解。
