| Modeling Object | |
|---|---|
| Name | A descriptive name for this modeling object. |
| Label | Specifies a unique numerical identifier for this modeling object. |
| Properties | |
| Description | Lets you enter a brief description. Click to open a text editor where you can enter a longer description. |
| Reference Chord Length | Lets you specify the reference length for reduced frequency. |
| Pressure Altitude | Lets you specify the pressure altitude used to calculate the reference density. |
| Reference Density | Lets you specify the reference density. |
| Calculate Reference Density from Pressure Altitude | Calculates the reference density directly from the pressure altitude value using the International Standard Atmosphere (ISA). |
| XY Plane Symmetry Key | Specifies symmetry with respect to the XY-plane in an aeroelastic model.SymmetryIn the XY-plane of the model, displacement in the Z-direction is zero and rotation about the X-axis and Y-axis are zero.No symmetryThe XY-plane is not a plane of symmetry.AntisymmetryIn the XY-plane of the model, displacement in the X-direction and Y-direction are zero and rotation about the Z-axis is zero. |
| XZ Plane Symmetry Key | Specifies symmetry with respect to the XZ-plane in an aeroelastic model.SymmetryIn the XZ-plane of the model, displacement in the Y-direction is zero and rotation about the X-axis and Z-axis are zero.No symmetryThe XZ-plane is not a plane of symmetry.AntisymmetryIn the XZ-plane of the model, displacement in the X-direction and Z-direction are zero and rotation about the Y-axis is zero. |
