Flexible Body Event dialog box
| Name - Description | |
|---|---|
| Name | Sets the flexible body load event name. |
| Description | Sets a description for the load event. |
| Definition | |
| Motion Simulation File | Lets you select a Motion Simulation file using the Browse command. The file must be a Motion Simulation file and have a solved flexible body solution and a flexible body. |
| Flexible Solution | Specifies the flexible body solution. |
| Flexible Body | Specifies the flexible body. |
| Load Length | |
| Duration | Lets you specify the load history duration of time that the software uses to generate the lifetime information for the post-processing.Use Existing Duration InformationReuses the duration information available in the data source for the load history.Enter DurationLets you enter the duration of the load history in the Duration box.No Duration Information AvailableIndicates that no duration information is available. |
| Distance | Lets you specify the load history corresponding riding distance that the software uses to generate the mileage information for the post-processing.For example, if a load history corresponds to 5000 km on a road and the durability simulation estimates that the load can be endured 300 times, this corresponds to a mileage of 150000 km.Enter DistanceLets you enter the distance of the load history in the Distance box.No Distance Information AvailableIndicates that no distance information is available. |
| Temperature Source | |
| Temperature Source | Specifies the temperature source to assign to the load event. |
| Create Temperature Source | Opens the Temperature Source dialog box that lets you create a temperature source. |
| Edit Temperature Source | Available when you select a temperature source from the list.Opens the Temperature Source dialog box that lets you modify the selected temperature source. |
