Use modal frequency analysis to test a model for its natural resonant frequencies (for example, a rattling muffler during idle conditions, or other failures).
Each of these incidences can act on the natural frequency of the model, which, in turn, can cause resonance and subsequent failure. The mode shape is the displacement shape that the model adopts when it is excited at a resonant frequency. Autodesk Inventor Simulation calculates the natural frequencies of vibration and the corresponding mode shapes. It presents the mode shapes as results that you can view and animate. Dynamic response analysis is not offered at this time.
