I have flexure that I am using a solution 106 to deflect part of the flexure with an SPCD in steps up to full pre-load. From this pre-loaded state, I would like to add a thermal soak on the pre-loaded flexure from this last load step. There are four thermal cases I wanted to consider to combine with the last static load step, if that is possible.
As long as the type of temperature loading is just a standard delta-t type load, not radiation, conduction, etc, then this should be possible with SOL106. I found a sample workshop with a preload subcase followed by a temp loading subcase. It uses temperature dependent material properties, but that is not necessary. I'll attach the pdf first and then the Nastran input file.
