To evaluate the response of a structure submitted to a periodic sine wave force in the time domain, can I define the OptiStruct loadstep as 'transient direct'? Does 'transient direct' and 'transient modal' differ in computational cost only?
Hi @Ariane Rebelato
Yes you can run a transient analysis.
Direct method is slightly time and computational expensive over modal transient.
