Assing moment of inertia to an assembly
Assing moment of inertia to an assembly
(OP)
Hi,
I am trying to run a motion analysis study on an assembly. I have assigned mass and centre of gravity but I can't find how can I assign moment of inertia. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks for the reply. I want to assign I values from centre of mass. I have modelled a simple representation of the actual assembly for use in motion analysis. Any idea ?

It's been a few months, but I recall that the parameters for inertia were on the same interface as those for CG and mass, arranged in a 3x3 grid.

I expected the inertia to be on the same interface as CG and mass but (I am using SW2011) when i choose the option of assigned mass properties in mass properties dialog box, only mass and centre of gravity options are there.
