Normal Acceleration
The Normal Acceleration adds an inward normal acceleration an:
Alternatively, specify the acceleration a0 of the boundary. The part in the normal direction is used to define the boundary condition:
This feature represents an external source term. It can also be used to manually couple acoustics with a structural analysis for modeling acoustic-structure interaction.
Normal Acceleration
Select a Type—Inward Acceleration (the default) or Acceleration.
•
For Inward Acceleration, enter the value of the Inward acceleration an (SI unit: m/s2). The default is 0 m/s2. Use a positive value for inward acceleration or a negative value for outward acceleration.
•
For Acceleration, enter values for the components of the Acceleration a0 (SI unit: m/s2). The defaults are 0 m/s2.
