CG/Inertia Summary

The total mass, center of gravity, and inertia of the models or bodies within a model can be quickly obtained through the CG/Inertia Summary utility.

  • To add entities to the list, highlight entities from the model tree on the left of the dialog and click Add.
  • When a system is added, all of its child entities, including other sub-systems, get added to the list.
  • To remove an entity, highlight it in the table and click Delete.
Flexbodies can also be included. The utility takes into account the calculated flexbody properties and corrects the location of the flexbody reference frame if it is not coincident with model reference frame.
