Creo Parametric 10.0.0.0

User Interface Location: In the Generative Design application, click Physics > Mass.

In Generative Design, you can now define a point mass to represent a concentrated mass without stiffness and specific shape, and then apply it to the preserved geometry surfaces.

You can use a point mass idealization to study how the model behaves with that mass located at a particular location without specifying the entire geometry. A centrifugal or acceleration load is required to support a point mass idealization.

This enhancement is available in both Modal and Structural studies.

With this enhancement, you can easily apply a mass load without needing to specify the entire geometry. This enhancement captures the design intent without compromising the loading conditions.
