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.

Hi Deepesh,

You can input moment of inertia values for each direction when defining a Point Mass in Ansys Mechanical Application. This allows you to idealize the inertial effects from a body using a Point Mass, which can affect modal and harmonic solutions. The location of the Point Mass can be anywhere in space and can also be defined in a local coordinate system if one exists.
