Frequency-domain, Perturbation, Prestressed Analysis

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi,

I am trying to solve a mechanical model in frequency domain with an intrinsic stress in the material.

Attached is a very simple model of a beam. I started with the stationary study, then eigenfrequnecy, the frequency domain with added dissipation. All works fine.

Then I added strain and and ran a new study Prestressed Analysis, Eigenfrequency. This works as well, as expected with added tensile strain the frequency increases. Great.

Then I added the prestressed Analysis, Frequency domain. The expectation was to get a new spectrum, similar to the first frequency domain study, but shifted to higher frequencies as predicted in the prestressed eigenrequency study. Teh study gave me a solution but it is a zero resoult, i.e. NOTHING happens at all.

I am not sure what is wring. Thanks for your help.
