Dynamic Analysis Solutions

  • What is a Dynamic Analysis?

– Any case where the load is time varying and inertia forces may be present

  • NASTRAN Dynamics adds the following solutions to FEMAP

– Transient Response – Frequency Response – Shock Spectrum Analysis – Random Vibration – DDAM Analysis

  • Most Solutions offer both direct and modal solution capabilities

– Direct – Applies the direct equations of motion to every grid point, providing a more accurate but more costly answer – Modal – Uses mode shapes to determine response and reduces overall model size

Equations of Motion – Direct Analysis Equations of Motion – Modal Analysis Full Mass Matrix of System Transforms Matrix into Modal Coordinates

Damping

  • Types of Damping
  • For frequency response and random response, modal

damping is typically used

  • It can be specified by the following methods:

– Critical Damping (2.5%) – Structural Damping (5.0%) – Q Damping (20)

  • Relationship shown below

Frequency Cards

  • Responses are specified at certain frequencies based off a

variety of criteria using the FREQ Cards

– Frequency List Methods (explicitly define frequencies by a range)

  • FREQ, FREQ1, FREQ2

– Modal Frequency Methods (list frequencies based off modes and generating points around each mode)

  • FREQ3, FREQ4, FREQ5

– It is common to use the modal frequency to fill in data around modes and using the list methods to catch any missing data – Can be combined

  • Refer to NX NASTRAN QRG for more detail of FREQ –

Random Response

  • Random Response is used to look at load environments that

are non-deterministic

– Uses a statistical approach to analyzing the response to a structure where the instantaneous magnitude is not known at a given time

  • Applications include acoustic environments from launch, earthquake

analysis, and wind pressure fluctuations

– Analysis uses frequency response as basis for determining overall statistical response by multiplying the transfer functions of the frequency response and the input PSD to develop a response spectral density

  • This is in turn used to determine an RMS response, which is used to

determine the statistical response of the structure

Sine Vibe Transfer Function Input PSD Response Spectral Density

Random Response

  • Standard Input

– Power Spectral Density (PSD) function, determines the input environment for the structure – Specs are determined by analyzing time history responses of various environments – Typical spec shown below (Source: GSFC GEVS-STD-7000)

Random Response

  • Random Output

– Random will generate the following data

  • PSDF Data

– Used for looking at overall spectral densities to determine areas of high response

  • CRMS Data

– This is cumulative RMS value that shows how the energy adds together as you increase in frequency

  • RMS Response

– The RMS response of each data point of interest » This is equal to the square root of the area under the PSDF data curve – This RMS values is typically multiplied by a factor (typically 3) to show the highest stress within a certain probability » 3 Sigma ensures that the highest stress due to the environment will not exceed this value 99.7% of the time

  • Positive Crossings

– Determines the amount of cycles per unit of time occur » Typically used for fatigue calculations

Tips and Tricks

  • Several Tips and Tricks

– Run Modes First!

  • Understand the natural frequency of the system to get an idea of what frequencies will play a

major role in your system. This should be performed in combination with understand modal mass participation to determine what modes will likely be significant

– Ensure that modal analysis captures full modal content

  • Ensure that you are capturing at least 80% of mass participation or full range of frequencies of

interest

– Verify input by looking at response at constraint location

  • This will verify that your load is correct for the model

– Turn on RESVEC

  • Captures the higher modal content that is not captured in lower modes frequency content

Conclusion

  • FEMAP Dynamics Add-on adds several dynamic solutions to the FEMAP

environment:

– Transient Response – Frequency Response – Random Response – Shock – DDAM

  • Bulk of analyses focus on random and frequency response, using the modal

method for solution

  • Dynamic Analyses are very use for time varying loadings and any places

where inertia and damping play a major affect on the response of a structure
