Phase
You can add a Phase subnode to nodes which define a load in order to prescribe the phase angle in a frequency domain analysis.
For modeling the frequency response, the physics interface splits the harmonic load into two parameters:
•
The amplitude, F, which is specified in the node for the load.
•
The phase (), which is specified in the Phase subnode.
Together these define a harmonic load, for which the amplitude and phase shift can vary with the excitation frequency, f:
Shell Properties
Select the layer or interfaces based on this node is added under which type of load feature. You can select individual layers or interfaces in this node which are allowed on the parent node.
All other settings for the Phase node are described in the documentation for Phase in the Solid Mechanics interface.
