Which simulation type lets you vary model dimensions and compare results in a table?
Answer: Parametric Dimension
A Parametric Dimension simulation varies model parameters and shows the results in a Parametric Table.
A Gravity load needs which information to calculate weight?
Answer: Material density and gravity direction
Gravity loads use the material density and the direction and size of gravity to apply body weight.
In a Modal Analysis of an unconstrained part, what are the first six modes near 0 Hz?
Answer: Rigid body modes
A free body has six rigid-body modes, three translations and three rotations, at about zero frequency.
Where do you change the material used only in a simulation, without changing the part file?
Answer: Assign Materials in the Stress Analysis environment
Assign Materials lets you override materials for the simulation without changing the original part material.
Which command creates a document of the simulation setup and results?
Answer: Report
The Report command creates a report with the model, mesh, loads, constraints, and result images.
What does the Probe tool do in the results display?
Answer: Shows the result value at a picked point
Probe places labels showing the result value at chosen spots on the model.
Before you can solve a static analysis, what must the model have?
Answer: At least one load and enough constraints to stop rigid body motion
A static solve needs loads and constraints that stop free motion, unless rigid body mode detection is turned on.
