How to follow modes shapes as a parameters in modal analysis

      Hello,

      I would like to conduct a sensitivity study on a modal analysis to examine how output parameters evolve based on variations in input parameters. I can parameterize the positions of the mode shapes, but when certain input parameters have a significant influence, they can alter the mode positions. As a result, a mode shape at position *n* may not correspond to the same shape when the input parameters change.

      To address this issue, I used the MAC coefficient (available in NVH Toolkit, version 2022 R1), which allows me to define an objective function that accounts for these position variations across the entire model. However, I am unable to specifically analyze the sensitivity of an individual mode shape.

      Thank you in advance for your help.

      There doesn't seem to be an automatic way.  Do you have access the "Knowledge Resources" on the Customer Portal?  KB 2062274 offers a file based technique that may give you some ideas.
