I understood DOF is false in order to convert Elastic model to rigid body.

that's it.

Dear Dr.Jason as the subject tells you, I'd like to make my FAST V8 code Elastic model to rigid body. How should I change the input? and I'd like to keep the inputs like pitch angle, rotor Azimuth and yaw angle fixed, How should I do ? please let me know those issues. kyushu university RIAM masataka...

Dear jason

thank you for your reply.
I mean both.
sorry my english is bad.
so, you mean TwrBsMxt consists of not only aerodynamic pitching moments , but also another elements?
OK. I will check ElastoDyn.f90/ED_CalcOutput().

best regards.

Dear Jason

please let me know How to derive the TwrBsMxt from the FAST code.

best regards.

Hi all, I am new bee in this forum. I'd like to know Where I can find ,for example TwrBsMxt, from the FAST code? In the ADTwr_CalcOutput() we can get the value of y%TowerLoad%moment(:,j). but the value seems not corresponding TwrBsMxt. How can I calculate TwrBsMxt? please let me know of it ---------...
