Hello sir,

I read the explanation about “passive” in the user guide, it says

“Note that the Passive option in the Six DOF group box is used when you do not want the forces and moments on the zone to be taken into consideration.”

This statement isn’t clear enough. Are the stress forces acting on the inflation (CV:011) from CV ignored? Or there is no force (gravity, stress forces) existing within the inflation (CV:011)?

Hmm I just want to check the underlying principle of “passive” option and how it works.

Thanks for your reply!
