In ShapeDesigner SaaS, solid body analysis is used to compute the mass for:
This type of analysis is useful for calculating properties for complex geometric shapes. The parameters for solid body analysis are specified in the "Solid Analysis" tab of the "Analysis and Loads" dialog. The mass is computed using the mass density of the material.
Select the material type using the Material Type selection dropdown. The material properties are displayed. If your material type is not listed, select the User-Defined material type. When this option is selected, you may enter user-defined values for material properties. For user-defined material types, enter the Mass Density for this type of analysis.
