BCs for flexbodies

Hello,
 
Is there a way to include SPCs in your model when creating and MNF file for a flexbody? I am asking because when I tried creating an mnf file for a table-like structure, the 1st mode was completely off than when running a simple sol103. The points which were supposed to be constrained were moving freely in the modes (even though I had also included them in ASETS).
 
Is there another way that I can ensure the validity of the constraints when creating an mnf file?
 
Thanks,

  • Hello Josef,
    perhaps I dont exactly get your question, but can it be that the mnf-file is okay and has interface nodes on the locations of the BCs. And that you only forgot to define the BCs in Adams? If you didnt constraint the interface nodes in Adams in the same way than in FEA (eg NASTRAN) than there are no constraints...
    With my best wishes Bruno
