In several studies of the analysis of the defect effect on the dynamic characteristics of the structure, the defect is modeled by reduction of the modulus of young. I want to perform this method on a plate using AnsysWorkbench. I did the modeling of the plate with a defect region. after I did the modal analysis. the question is how to find the displacement of each model node ?. I need the displacements of the nodes and their positions on the plate in an orderly manner.
hi..you know the finite element mesh is generated with respect to cartesian coordinates (x, y and z for 3-d problem)..Now, it is easy to know the displacement at any node point. The node point is define in terms of local coordinates of x, y, z and also it is known the dimension of plate and number of node define the plate. so easily to can read the displacement at node point and position of plate. ANSYS is having the prsentation of results in graphical form and so you try to plot displacement cotour ..from the displacment contour one can read node displacement directly from the contour..ok all the best..
Hi, for extracting eigenvectors see https://www.researchgate.net/post/How_to_find_the_Eigen_vectors_for_each_eigen_value_in_Modal_Analysis_in_ANSYS_Workbench
Hi,
For do that I recommend that you right-click on your results, then extract(export as text file) the results. In the resulted excel file, you can see the displacement (eigenvector or shape mode), for each nodes.
For see the node numbers you must check the option in display preferences.
