Initial Values
The Initial Values node adds an initial values for the displacement field, the velocity field, the rotations, and the angular velocity. It serves as initial conditions for a transient simulation or as an initial guess for a nonlinear analysis. In addition to the default Initial Values node always present in the interface, you can add more Initial Values nodes if needed.
