Normal Displacement
The Normal Displacement adds an inward normal displacement dn, which is assumed to be harmonically oscillating:
Alternatively, specify the displacement d0 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 in vibroacoustic problems.
Normal displacement
Select a Type: Inward Displacement (the default) or Displacement.
•
For Inward Displacement enter the value of the Inward displacement dn (SI unit: m). Use a positive value for inward displacement or a negative value for outward displacement.
•
For Displacement enter values for the components of the Displacement d0 (SI unit: m).
