I am not sure about the assumption that the wheels are "bounded" to the ground by the weight of the structure... Should I constraint also the positive z-direction on those nodes corresponding to the link to wheels because of the weight? Weight affects to all nodes of the structure, so...

However, I am not sure about the assumption that the wheels are "bounded" to the ground by the weight of the bike... Should I constraint also the positive z-direction on those nodes corresponding to the link to wheels because of the weight? But weight affects to all nodes of the structure...

Ok! Thank you very much!

Ok! Thank you very much!

Hi, I have the same doubt about unconstrained modal analysis. I do not know exactly why it is useful for. I do not know how to get some insight into where are the best constraint locations from the unconstrained analysis. Related to it, if I had to perform a modal analysis of a box-like...

Hi, I am not sure about the performance of free-free modal analysis in ANSYS. If I wanted to get the natural frequencies of a box-like structure with four wheels (at each corner of the bottom surface) by means of FE-analysis, should it be performed as constrained or unconstrained ? Indeed...

Hi, If I wanted to get the natural frequencies of the bicycle frame by means of FE-analysis, should it be performed as constrained or unconstrained ? Indeed, the wheels are not bounded to the ground, so please, could you help me? Thank you very much

Hi, Why did you perform a free-free modal analysis? Why it is useful for? I mean, you should always have into account the constraints, shouldn't you?
