Operational Deflection Shapes ODS

Hey all!

I'd like to enhance the investigation of the resonances of a mechanical system model incluing flexibles structures. Is it possible to extract operational deflection shapes from the System after the simulation using the Adams PPT? Or should I stop the Simulation at a certain time step(system state) and do a linear mode analysis?

What are your thoughts on this?

Kind Regards

I am sorry, your answer was partly hidden and I did not realize. :/

I guess in my case it will be better if I replace the constraints with force elements after the preloading, copying the constraint forces at that particular point in time in order to preserve the degrees of freedom of the model.

Kind Regards
