I am tying to obtain the amplitude response of a MEMS bridge (model attached) with the structural mechanics module, I obtained the resonant frequency of the bridge via Eigen studies. I was trying to obtain the amplitude response of the bridge via frequency studies around the resonant frequency I obtained via Eigen studies. However, my displacement is always zero all across my frequency sweep. Can somebody let me know what I am doing wrong or missing in my model. It seems like a straightforward problem to me.

Thank you.

Dear Olutosin,

The Point Load is defined as a Harmonic Perturbation even though this is a “standard” Frequency Domain Study. Right click on the Load and de-active the Harmonic Perturbation setting. The documentation has a good description of when to use the Harmonic Perturbation setting.
