ABAQUS SSD, Modal : Define damping for aluminium plate

ABAQUS SSD, Modal : Define damping for aluminium plate

(OP)
Hello,

I do not know how to define damping for my aluminium plate in the step SSD Modal analysis. In the 1st Step (Frequency) I use SIM-based linear dynamic and I thought that it calculate a kind of damping for my plate but I am not sure.

So am I right with the SIM Based linear dynamic?
How can I manually set the damping for my aluminium plate?

Thanks in advance :)

Damping has to be defined by the users and there are multiple ways to do it. The Analysis Users Guide tells you more.
