    I have another question, I want to add 35G (343 m/s/s).

    But I use the unit (ton, mm, MPa) in the model.

    So Should I input 343000 mm/s/s ?

    Use SPCD card instead of DAREA.Whenever load is in the form of acceleration ,velocity and displacement ,we have to use SPCD card.

    Download free eBook on Dynamic analysis using OptiStruct.

    In chapter 14 ,example 14.2 and 14.3 we have applied load as acceleration.

    your units are quite right.

    But I use the unit (ton, mm, MPa) in the model.

    Thank you Mrt san,

     

    I'd like to confirm the SPCD value.

    Can I check the value of SPCD after setting or reopening file?

    Yes, Either you can check the same by opening the fem file in any text pad or review from constraint panel.

    14.0 is very old version and upgrading to new version would help you to use new features of OptiStruct.
