1.4.14 Mass and rotary inertia elements

Product: ABAQUS/Standard  

Problem description

Model:

Mass100.0
Rotary inertia 
100.0
200.0
300.0
Centrifugal axis of rotation(0, 0, 1) through (0, 0, 0)
Gravity load vector(0, 1, 0)
Rotary acceleration axis(0, 0, 1) through (0, 0, 0)

The ROTARYI element is also tested with *ORIENTATION and with finite rotation.

Results and discussion

The calculated reactions are in agreement with the applied loads.
