Define and assign static load, joint load or area distributed load, then use the Define menu again to define a time history function, likely a sinusoidal type function, then define load case (or 'analysis case' if you have an older version) add a new case for time history, then apply the TH sine function to the static load

If it's not too late, please do yourself a favor and hire a vibe specialist to do this. There is a lot involved in such an analysis
