Modal analyzes allow you to determine displacements in given frequency periods. During design, users need to perform modal analysis of machine and device elements. The software dedicated to such analyzes is Autodesk Inventor Professional, Autodesk Nastran In-CAD and Autodesk Simulation Mechanical.
Autodesk Inventor Professional can create modal analysis. Assuming chosen frequency range and number of cycles. An additional advantage of using Autodesk Inventor Professional is the ability to import data directly from the dynamic simulation module.
The advantages of Autodesk Nastran In-CAD and Autodesk Simulation Mechanical software include the ability to obtain answers on the response spectrum and frequency response. A possibility of interest is the random vibration analysis. The use of this operation will allow you to eliminate the elements that work to the detriment of the device.
