Modal Analysis¶
This analysis uses the data in tutorial/15_eigen_spring.
Analysis Target¶
The analysis target is the same spring as in the preceding section, Nonlinear Static Analysis (Hyperelasticity, Part 2).

Analysis Details¶
The displacements of the constrained surface shown in Figure 4.4.1 are constrained, and modal analysis is performed up to the fifth mode. The analysis control data is shown below.

Analysis Results¶
Using the analysis result data file spring.res.0.3, the third vibration mode (compression and extension of the spring in the y direction) is created with REVOCAP_PrePost and shown in Figure 4.15.1. The deformation scale factor is set to 1000. In addition, the list of natural frequencies output to the analysis result log file is shown below as numerical analysis result data.
