Electric Potential B.C. in the Dynamic/Explicit Step

Electric Potential B.C. in the Dynamic/Explicit Step

(OP)
Hey all,

I am trying to apply an Electric Potential B.C. to a surface. I want to use the dynamic/explicit analysis type, however, when I select that as my step type, the Electric Potential B.C. option disappears from the edit B.C. window! Is that due to a license limitation or an error I might have made in one of the definitions?

Thank you!

RE: Electric Potential B.C. in the Dynamic/Explicit Step

Electromagnetic analysis is available only in /Standard.

By the way, I *strongly* recommend some supervision. If you have no one to supervise you, then do yourself a big favor: Read the documentation - multiple times, if the need arises!

Are you new to this forum? If so, please read these FAQ:

Okay thank you for the tip, unfortunately my professors are not familiar with Abaqus at all. I will however go over the documentation to get a better understanding of the different analysis types. Do you know what step analysis type should I use if I need a time-dependent electromagnetic analysis ? Thank you.
