Description:

In the attached models an external axial force is applied with an offset.

The models will demonstrate and explain how to substitude this (axial) force at an offset with a moment and a force (without an offset).

A detailed explanation can be found in the report of the corresponding model.

• Option 1: axial force with offset applied between the bearings
• Option 2: axial force with offset applied outside the bearings
• In SimPro Expert: the clearance is varied in two steps

• DGBB-CRB - force at offset - substition.spe
• DGBB-CRB - force at offset-outside - substition.spe

SimPro Quick models:

• DGBB-CRB - force at offset substituted with moment and force without offset.spq
