Hi:


How can you inlude the wt. of the model (dead load)as a loading condition in Mechanica? Thanks in advance
 
apply gravity in the right direction.

Thanks Israr-also-if the part is in an assembly can the gravity load of only one partin the assemly be included in the analysis?
 
I don't think so. If its a mechanism type assembly then you can apply gravity to a part and then after running dynamic analysis ,mechanism loads can be transferred to mechanica.
