PSD Load
- Load Data
Specifies the input method for the PSD Load. You have the option to input Frequency vs. G Acceleration data in the tabular view.
- Direction
Indicates the direction of applied PSD excitation.
- Damping Ratio
Specifies the structural damping used in the analysis. Default setting is
0.02
.
Definition
- Result Type
Specifies the type of result to be computed. Options are
and .- Location Method
Determines where the result is computed. Valid input is
, meaning results will be extracted from predefined boundary conditions.- Boundary Condition
Choose the specific boundary condition applied for result extraction from those available in the drop-down list. Valid boundary conditions are
, and .- Orientation
Defines the coordinate system used for interpreting direction-specific results. Only supports
.- Reference
Supports
. This means the response of any location in a structural component is calculated in terms of the relative motion between the base and the structural component, and vice versa.
Options
- Result Selection
Defines the direction/component for PSD plot display. For force and moment reaction result types, options are
, and .
Results
Displays the computed force/moment reaction values due to the PSD load in each direction (X, Y and Z Axes).
