Rotational body analysis 1

[tejras]

Hello,

Recently I was performing the dynamic analysis on the pulley, meshing was done using tetra10 element. While applying the boundary conditions, I was unable to apply the centrifugal load, no element was getting highlighted to apply load to.

I hope I could be helped.

Thank you

choose ...
1) use a body force, applied to all elements.

or
2) use an acceleration, make sure you use the model mass.

...

another day in paradise, or is paradise one day closer ?

Hey thanks rb1957 to inform a bit.

I'm a beginner to this stuff, so if you could tell me in quite depth so that I could perform analysis on any rotational body.
from meshing to the boundary condition to the solver to the solution.

Thanks
