Hi,
I'm playing around with ANSYS to find the modes of vibration of a structure. How do I know which are the most important modes? I understand that there are infinite modes of vibration - getting higher and higher in frequency.
I'm guessing that it has something to do with the effective mass of each mode versus the total mass.
Also, when people say "Natural Frequency," which mode does that frequency belong to?
Cheers
