Vibration of a rotating shaft

Lets say I want to perform a harmonic or dynamic simulation on a rotating shaft and I implement the centrifugal force boundary condition. The shaft has an imbalance, which results in a deformation of the shaft. The deformation of the shaft will increase the centrifugal force. Does simscale account for the effect of the prior deformation when calculating the centrifugal force?

Hi Roy!

I asked my colleague @rszoeke about that and he might get back to you soon.

Update: This is not possible on our platform @roy_g!
