We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Hello Fabián,

I have a Static Structural model with a Fixed Support and a load. The solution of that is linked to the Setup cell of the Harmonic Response to get a Pre-Stress Full solution.

I picked the face of the Fixed Support and made a Named Selection.  Then I right clicked on that NS and selected Create Nodal Named Selection.

In the Harmonic Response, I was able to insert a Nodal Displacement, selected the Nodal Named Selection and applied the displacement amplitude into the components. This model solved and I was able to plot the Deformation at the frequency of interest.

Good luck!

Peter
