    Hi Ram,

    For rigid bodies, in Utility tab>> RBody Manager option is available where the master node of the Rbody can be seen. 

     

    If you card edit the Rbody, ICoG option is available. And when ICoG is 1 = Mass and inertia are added at the master node coordinates; the center of gravity is computed using the master and slave node coordinates, the master node is moved to the computed center of gravity. And by default ICoG is 1.

     

    Or you can also use the Summary panel in post menu to obtain a summary of component element counts of the model. By default, the Summary panel summarizes the Center of Gravity of the components.
