Reply To: How to get the residual vectors under the multiple forces

[dlooman]

It's not necessary to do restarts.  You can issue modcont,on and then do multiple solves in the modal.  Only the first solve will do the mode exctraction.  The remaining solves will create additional load vectors.

resvec,on

modcont,on

F,num_NODE_,F_DOF_INDEX_,1     !Generate the first load vector

solve    ! modal extraction and first load vector

F,num_NODE_,F_DOF_INDEX_,1   !Generate the second load vector

solve   ! create second load vector

F,num_Node...

solve

etc...
