Conversion NASTRAN to ABAQUS

Conversion NASTRAN to ABAQUS

(OP)
Hello everyone,

I am trying to perform a simple frequency response analysis using ABAQUS - using a 2-DOF model
Here is the NASTRAN inputdeck:

CODE -->

ID FRF_TWO_DOF
SOL 111
CEND
TITLE = TWO-DOF SYSTEM
SUBTITLE = MODAL FREQUENCY RESPONSE
LABEL =  NASTRAN EXAMPLE
$
SPC = 996
METHOD = 10
DLOAD = 999
FREQ = 888
SDAMPING = 777
$
SET 11 = 1,2
OFREQ = ALL
$
SUBCASE 1
DISPLACEMENT(PHASE,PUNCH) = 11
$

BEGIN BULK

what I did so far consisted in the conversion of the bulk data from NASTRAN to ABAQUS:

Does anybody know how to set the dynamical force? how to request the FR-solution until 20 Hz?
Thank you very much
