Hallo,
Is Eigenvalue calculation reasonable and doable in 2 D ?

Yes. It is not question about dimension, it is more related to capabilities of specific solvers. Which solver are you considering? -Peter

Re: Eigenvalues in Axi Symmetric 2D
Hallo Peter,
I want to analyze an ultrasonic mechanical system.
My knowledge is limited, which I can use next to StressSolver.
Problem is: I know the contour of the rotational symmetric situation which I would like to set - up with parameters.
So my sketch would be 2D. Then I would like to check the eigenmodes in the desired range to realize where longitudinal nodes in the structure are. Changing the various geometrical parameters I look for the spot for the node to fix the structure there (so far I could do it with modal anaysis).
When I have finalized the geometry I would then check the stresses of the parts over a broader frequency range (stability issue) by harmonic anaysis.
So my questions are:
Which solver would you recommend for the eigen analysis in 2 D ?
Which one for the harmonic analysis ? Checking a range of frequencies with "scanning" BC ?
Do you believe that your optimizational solver could find the optimum geometry ?
Thank you again and in advance for supporting newbies in the forum.
Alfred.

Hi
StressSolver can do steady, transient, harmonic and eigenmode. So that is the solver to use.

Re: Eigenvalues in Axi Symmetric 2D
Hallo Peter,
from a axi symmetric 2D stress solver analysis doing looking for eigen frequencies: when I get eigenvalues I do not know, how to convert them to the frequency.
If I sqrt(Eigenvalue)/(2*Pi) this gives wrong values, but sqrt(Eigenvalue/(2*Pi)) is closer, but still not correkt.
Any issue I am missing, that need attendance for 2D Eigen value simulations ?

Re: Eigenvalues in Axi Symmetric 2D
I believe eigenvalue = 2 * Pi * f
so
f = eigenvalue/2*Pi
so
f = eigenvalue/2*Pi
Re: Eigenvalues in Axi Symmetric 2D
I think the right conversion should be f = sqrt(eigenvalue)/(2 pi).

I agree I gave omega to frequency eigenvalue is omega squared
