Hi,

i have made a forced frequency calculation over a range of frequencies, resulting in results at each frequency step. My results are vibrations speeds in m/s (model is in SI units). is it possible to convert the results of each step from m/s to mm/s?
 
Hello!,
Better convert the full FEMP model and rerun the forced frequency response.
The following command will convert the full database from meters to mm, as well a Pascals to MPa, etc.., is an integral command: TOOLS > CONVERT UNITS > LOAD > IDEAS_from_m_N_degK_to_mm_N_degC.CF
This conversion factor file is delivered with Femap.

Best regards,

Thanks, this seems to be the easiest option.
