About Mechanica and dynamic analysis!

[MvudiOlivier]

Good day everybody! Is it possible possible to do a static analysis of a model under motion condition like speed ,acceleration in mechanica? ...Because i have tried which was still unsuccessful.I know that we can transfer load from dynamic mechanism to Mechanica-structure.But i did not manage to get it under motion condition.Tutorials,articles ,any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Mvudi Olivier

Olivier, You could try to add a centrifugal load, if I understand you correctly. That type of load would simulate the inertial effect due to motion. Something like the force acting on a driver while the car is accerating or decelerating. Am I close?

Hatim! Thanks very much ,i'll try that and will let you know.In the meantime what about if i am dealing with a bucket off-loading a discharge (or material) for which i would like to have a static analysis at every time of motion?Is it possible? Thanks again, Mvudi Olivier

Is the bucket moving and there's a dynamic force involved that varies with time or is the bucket only offloading so the contained weight varies with time? If it was the latter case, I would suggest creating a load (force) in Mechanica that varies with time. I gues that's all you would need.

Hi Hatim! Your first case describes much closer my situation ,a moving bucket with variable load .The motion bucket and the load have one variable in common which time. Regards, Mvudi Olivier
