Hi,
My name is Vincent, I have to study Static Aeroelasticity on a bridge deck and to do so I began to use Femap with NX Nastran.
After learning the basics and saw a video ( and follow step by step the analysis but I had no results, the analysis never finished (I let it 10 hours and still not finished).
A picture of the main settings I did attached, I think my problem is from one of theses things :
-Contraints (I just fixed both of the side surfaces)
-Meshing (I did : meshing control --> size along curve then geometry --> solids)
-Structural Grid group to define the spline
-Also I didn't find any parameter in the analysis to control the wind speed
I will apreciate so much any help, even to tell me who could help me or show me an exemple on Femap/Nastran.
Best Regard
Vincent
