Hi,

I'm wondering that the value of Damping Coefficient (%) in dynamic analysis is same as Damping Ratio?
If not same how can I find this value? Thank you.

Hi VladimirN,

Thank you for your information. I've read through the Help. I would like to confirm my understand is correct.
As the Damping Ratio expression is

Damping Ratio = Actual Damping Coefficient / Critical Damping Coefficient.

So the Damping Coefficient (%) in Creo Simulate is Damping Ratio * 100

Is my understand correct?
