Prerequisites : Although it is not our policy to deny students entry into a particular class, we recommend the following prerequisites in order for you to get the most out of this learning experience. For your own sake please ensure you have the appropriate qualifications or equivalent experience.

Basic engineering knowledge
Workbench - Simulation : Introduction

What you will learn

Types, concepts, and terminology of dynamic analyses
Setting up and running a modal and prestressed modal analysis
Harmonic analysis procedure and concepts
Theory, considerations, and setup for flexible transient dynamic models
How and when to utilize random vibration analysis

Summary

This class is a general introduction for using Simulation to perform a number of different types of dynamic simulations. For those who are ready to move past the basic static analysis of the introductory course, we will look at model, harmonic, transient dynamic, and random vibration (PSD) types of analyses. A little bit of theory is covered for each type followed by practical instruction in setting up, solving, and postprocessing. Several hands-on examples provide experience in the techniques learned.
