hi all,
I need to perform a dynamic frequency analysis on a fixture for which the part is exposed to 5g vibration load which varies from 50-1000 hz. i need to determine the stresses, fatigue life and natural frequencies of the fixture.
I havevery little knowledge about the dynamic capabilities of Pro/FEA. Can any one help me out with this.
First of all, how will we know that we have to do dynamic frequency analysis. what is the exact differenence between dynamic time and dynamic frequency anal.
The process which i know ( i mean which i read in the manual) is as follows:
1. Define the constrains, material and apply the Gravity in the direction prefered.
2. Perform the modal analysis and find the frequencies at different mode shapes.
3. Perform a dynamic frequency anal for all frequencies and find the frequency atwhich the stress are high. before perfoming the anal, we have to define the load as a function of time. this is what i didnt understand how to do for my particular problem.
4. Perform the dynamic analyis at the freuency at which the stresses are high and determine the stress and displacment contours. For this anal also, the load function is defined as in previous step.
I think this proceedure is correct, but i donn why i am performing these steps and the exact method to define the load function
Can any one please help me in this regard.
Thanks in advance.
