      Modal analysis enables you to model the undamped, free vibration characteristics of a structure by determining natural frequencies and mode shapes. You can then design your structure to avoid resonant frequencies or to vibrate at a specific frequency. Note that, although the results of a modal analysis include displacement results, you should only use these displacements to visualize the mode shape. In this video, you will see how you can do specify the Number of Modes in the physics tree. Here you can specify up to 12 modes.
