Create an aero spline

1. In the Simulation file, choose Home tab→Loads and Conditions group→Simulation Object Type list→Aero Spline .

2. In the First Corner (Aero Element) group, select an aero panel that defines one of the corners of the aero panel mesh over which the aero spline is defined.

3. In the Second Corner (Aero Element) group, select an aero panel that defines the opposite corner.For example, suppose that for the aerodynamic surface shown below, for the first corner, you select aero panel . For the second corner, you select aero panel .The spline is interpolated over all of the aero panels that are highlighted.

4. In the Simulation Navigator, hide the aero panel mesh.This ensures that you select structural nodes in the next step.

5. In the Aero Spline dialog box, in the Structural Nodes group, select the structural nodes to which the aero spline is attached.

6. In the Parameters group, specify the linear attachment flexibility.

7. (Optional) In the Parameters group, specify the other parameters.

8. Click OK.
