Can I make use of reaction loads, available from dynamic simulation, in the stress analysis environment?
Yes. Select the time at which you want the reaction load to be transferred. Then select the component that needs to be analyzed and then select the faces where load is going to applied. Now create a new stress analysis and select motion load analysis option. The loads will be automatically applied to the component. Q: Can I apply a load on a specific area and shape of a face? A: Yes, you can apply a load, or constraint, on a specific area of a component face. In order to achieve this you initially have to draw the desired shape on the face and then, using the split feature, split the face within the part environment. This split face will then be available within the Stress Analysis on which to apply the load. Q: Can I create new materials in Stress Analysis environment? A: Yes, you can create new materials within Stress Analysis environment. Select Styles Editor from within the Assign materials dialogue box to create a new material. Once this new material has been created, it will be a
