Vibration of stl surfaces

MFiX
#1

Hello dear mfix developer,

I’d like to create some kind of vibrations on an inclined plate where cylindrical particles are sent. The aim is to add an embedded link at the bottom of the inclined slope and then to vibrate the plate by setting 2° of inclination, i.e. +2 -2 for each 0.01 s (see photo). This would simulate vibrations.
I’ve already managed to implement a csv file with the keyframe function to move the plate in translation. But I can’t do the tilt. Can you help me? Thanks in advance

You can rotate the plane by setting an internal surface. Set the center and rotation in the Internal Surface (moving STL type) pane. Then in the keyframe pane, link the column of the csv file that has the transient rotation speed to the axis of rotation you want to use.

Ok thanks.

is it possible to implement a sin function to generate grid vibrations, as shown in the image above?
