    Hi Ajaykumar,

    In RADIOSS modal analysis is supported only for single component level. Multi component models with contacts, joints...etc is not supported in RADIOSS.

    I strongly recommend you to use OptiStruct for modal analysis.

    For modal analysis, activate the/EIG card. The card is as shown in the picture below.

    Also add the below keywords for activating the Implicit linear load step in the engine file:

    /IMPL/LINEAR

    /IMPL/SOLVER/1

    5  0 0  0.
