Creating a FEM Modal Port (Mesh)

Apply a FEM modal port to a flat mesh face on the boundary of a FEM region when using the finite element method (FEM) solution method.

  1. On the Source/Load tab, in the Ports group, click the  FEM modal port icon.


    Figure 1. The Create FEM modal port (mesh) dialog.
  2. Specify the port position using one of the following workflows:
    • Specify the vertices. Under Specify port, click using vertices and use point-entry to add the vertices in the 3D view.
    • Specify the points. Under Specify port, click as points and specify the three corner points of the rectangular-shaped port.
  3. In the Label field, add a unique label for the FEM modal port.
  4. Click Create to create the FEM modal port and to close the dialog.
