Description
Unwanted vibration can lead to equipment failure, structural fatigue, and costly downtime. In this technical deep dive, we'll walk through a practical modal and frequency-response workflow in Inventor Nastran software using a fully generic vibrating‑machine model. You'll learn how to identify natural frequencies, interpret resonance behavior, tune stiffness, shift critical modes, and validate safe operating ranges. This session will deliver a repeatable, production-ready simulation workflow for engineers working with vibrating systems across mining, manufacturing, and machinery design.
Key Learnings
