In this course you will learn how to:

• Extract eigenmodes about a certain frequency
• Maximize the convergence rate during eigenvalue extraction
• Determine whether the number of extracted eigenmodes is sufficient to represent the structure's response adequately
• Perform transient, steady-state, response spectrum, and random response analyses using the eigenmodes
• Use multiple base motions
• Apply damping in linear problems

The workshops reinforce the fundamental concepts presented in the lectures.

Who should attend:

This course is recommended for engineers with experience using Abaqus.
