Structural Axisymmetric Gravity load dialog box (Simcenter Samcef)
| Type | |
|---|---|
| Type | Specifies how the gravity load is defined.Magnitude and directionDefines a gravity load with a specified magnitude and a direction specified by a vector.Gravity ZX, Gravity XYDefines acceleration at each component in terms of the axisymmetric plane and rotational axis. |
| Destination Folder | |
| Load Container | Specifies the folder in the Simulation Navigator in which the boundary condition is stored. The list includes the root container and existing folders that you created using the New Folder command. |
| Folder Manager | Displays a hierarchical list of existing folders. To create a new folder, right-click any level of the hierarchy and choose New Folder. |
| Model Object | |
| Select Object | Lets you select the geometry or FE entities on which the load is applied. ExcludedLets you remove individual entities from within your selected object. |
| Stacked Smart Selector Methods | Opens the Smart Selector Methods dialog box where you can specify a progression of smart selection filters.For more information, see Smart Selector Methods dialog box. |
| Magnitude | |
| Appears when Type is set to Magnitude and Direction. | |
| Acceleration | Specifies the magnitude of the acceleration as an expression or field. |
| Direction | |
| Appears when Type is set to Magnitude and Direction. | |
| Specify Vector | Lets you specify a vector to define the direction in which to apply the load. |
| Components | |
| Appears when Type is set to Gravity ZX or Gravity XY. | |
| Radial Acceleration****Axial Acceleration | Specifies the radial and axial acceleration magnitude. |
| The following options appear when Magnitude is set to Field. | |
| Specify Field | Lets you select or define a field to define acceleration magnitude. |
| Scale Factors | For each component, specifies the scale factor to apply to the field.The components available depend on the coordinate system type. |
| Card Name | Displays the name of the solver card this object writes to: .CLM ACC. |
