Density and Gravity Force

Hi All,

To neglect gravity effect, materials and liquid densities are considered as zero. I found some cases, where density is considered as -ve/ +ve value. What does negative sign represent? There are total three files where GRAVITY key word is available

For *. mfp GRAVITY

*.msp GRAVITY_CONSTANT

*.num GRAVITY_PROFILE

I am wondering what is the appropriate way to consider Gravity force effect. I followed following steps, but failed. Any idea how can I achieve gravity force effect?

hi, usually you don’t need to use any of the GRAVITY keywords. To neglect gravity effects, you can use negative sign for the densities. The densitiy values (absolute one) will still be used in some calculation, e.g. in heat transport. but don’t ask me why it’s like that…

If negative density value is given in msp file, the gravity force effect in deformation analysis is neglected, while absolute value of the solid density data is still used in calculation of the heat capacity related term when heat transport process being coupled. For fluid density values in mfp, they have to be always positive.

This conversation is a bit hilarious but very useful in a random way. Thanks, guys. It helps eventually.
