nIt's not exactly that. The geometry represents the structure of an upper airway as shown in the image below and body A is the selected face that is displaced 5mm in the positive Y direction in Step1. n
A negative pressure is applied to the airway walls in step 2 as shown below.n
The movement of body A is an important factor and output in my study. When a pressure is applied at the airway walls, body A usually displaces with the other structures. The total displacement of body A is shown below for a 1 step simulation with the pressure as the only load. n
I want to be able to compare the movement of body A when it is in its original position and after it is displaced to a more cranial or caudal position. So after body A is repositioned by the displacement load I want to give it some freedom to move in response to the pressure load. Do you think this is feasible? nThank you for your help!nBest, nDiane n
