The Frequency group includes the following categories and preferences.
| Category | Preference | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Modal | Max Modes to Find | Set the default value for the number of modes that a newly created frequency branch will contain. The default is 6. The entry range is from 1 to 200. |
| Limit Search to Range | Specify if a frequency search range should be considered in computing frequencies. Options include and (default). | |
| Min Range (Hz) | Set the lower limit of the frequency search range. The default is value is 0.01 for Modal Acoustic analyses and 0 all other analysis types. | |
| Max Range (Hz) | Set the upper limit of the frequency search range. The default is value is 100000000. | |
| Cyclic Phase Number of Steps | Set the number of intervals to divide the cyclic phase range (0 - 360 degrees) for frequency couplet results in cyclic modal analyses. | |
| Eigenvalue Buckling | Max Modes to Find | Set the number of buckling load factors and corresponding buckling mode shapes. The default value is 2. The entry range is from 1 to 200. |
| Condensed Parts | Max Modes to Find | Set the default value for the number of modes that a newly created frequency branch will contain. The default is 6. The entry range is from 1 to 200. |
