How to create a rotation velocity for a disk break

      Dear Forum

      We want to rotate a disk brake around the x-axis. The disk brake should have an initial speed which is then decelerated by the brake pads.
      Which command can I use to rotate an entire object around an axis with an initial velocity?

      Thanks for your help!

      Regards

      Hello,

      I am assuming you are using Ansys Mechanical and can use Initial Conditions. Please see if the following link helps (refer to the Define Initial Conditions section):
