Create a result path excitation

To create a result path excitation, you must select Result Path from the Excitation Type list in the Static Durability Event dialog box while you create a static event.

This example shows how to obtain the loading excitation shown in the following graphic.

In the Simulation Navigator , right-click the static durability event node and choose New Excitation.

  1. From the Load Case list, select Subcase 1.

  2. Click Add Load Case .

  3. From the Load Case list, select Subcase 2.

  4. Click Add Load Case .

  5. In the Result Path table, in the Subcase 2 row, double-click the cell in the Scale column.

  6. Change the value from 1 to -2.

  7. Follow the same process to add the following subcases and scale factor values.Load Case nameScale factor valueSubcase 13Subcase 23Subcase 1-2Subcase 21

  8. Click OK.

You get a result path node under the static event node in the Simulation Navigator.
