NAS 101: Linear Static and Normal Modes Analysis
Rigid Element Analysis with RBE2 and CONM2: Create a tube model with a 'rigid' end, define mass concentrations and apply a gravitational load for linear static analysis.
Normal Modes - Rigid Element Analysis with RBE2 and CONM2: Create a tube model with a 'rigid' end, define mass concentrations and perform modal analysis
Modal Analysis of Interpolation Constraint Elements and Concentrated Mass: Use previous exercise and replace rigid element with interpolation constraint elements.
NAS120: Linear Static and Normal Nodes Analysis Using MSC/NASTRAN and MSC/PATRAN
Linear Static - Rigid Element Analysis with RBE2 and CONM2: Run previous lessons using linear static analysis.
Simple Lumped Mass System: Model a simple lumped mass system using beam elements and point elements, apply proper constraints to ensure stability during analysis and find the first two modes of vibration.
