Hi all,

I'm trying to use perform a static analysis using inertial loads. I'm on optistruct user profile but I can find the accels button on analysis panel. Please see below.<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>Cattura1.thumb.JPG.298c2767f1c38ad91e496606b1fdb3cb.JPG

    Hi,

     

    Which version of HyperMesh are you using?

     

    ACCELS is added in 2017.1 HyperMesh update.

    Hi Prakash,

    thank you for your reply.

    I'm using Hypermesh 14. Can I add this button or I can perform a static analysis with inertial loads in HM 14?

     

    Thank You

    Hi @Staedtlerp

     

    No, but as a workaround, you can apply Gravity load using GRAV card.

    Ok Prakash.

    Thank you so much. I'm going to perform the analysis using GRAV card setting the inertial acceleration and the direction. I'll let you know if it works.

    Thank You so much.
