Flexible-Body Motion with Linear Material Models
Mechanical Event Simulation (MES) combines large-scale motion and stress analysis including flexible-body motion with linear material models to account for the elastic displacement of an FEA model. In addition to capabilities for rigid-body motion and nonlinear flexible-body motion, MES using linear material models can simulate deformation within the elastic range below the material yield point. To set up flexible-body motion with linear material models, specify linear material properties including Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio. For orthotropic materials, these values need to be supplied for multiple directions. During the event, the part's range of motion and resulting stresses will be displayed on screen. The following linear material models are available for models with flexible-body motion:
