Hi,

 

You can impose displacement using SPCD,

Hy,

 

I want to know from where we  should provide the displacement value, is it in SPCD only with different direction or in some other load type constraint.

Go to Analysis page>> Constraints>> Change load type to SPCD and activate the direction in which you want to apply imposed displacement and provide the magnitude. Constrain the same node with SPC.

Hello,

If in place of displacement, I want to apply velocity, acceleration, force, etc. Then what is the procedure?
