Mechanical enables you to import either object-based (Imported Remote Loads - Forces and Moments) or element-based (Surface Force Density or Body Force Density) data from an upstream analysis. If there is a frequency sweep setup in Maxwell, the element-based data can be imported at any frequency specified in the upstream sweep. If a Parametric Setup is defined in Maxwell, loads are imported for all RPMs. Object-based data are always imported at the nominal frequency. Select a link below for additional information for each import type:
Importing Forces and Moments: Supported by Maxwell Transient and Eddy Current Solvers.
Importing Surface Force Density: Supported by Maxwell Eddy Current Solver and Transient Solvers.
Importing Body Force Density: Supported by Maxwell Eddy Current Solver and Transient Solvers.
