The first thing I want to once it's open is to locate a new area to save this off in, this is going to be my work area to run the analysis. So, I'm going to rename this as plate_mass_frequency response and I've been kicked out of the environment, so go back in, back in to Autodesk Nastran In-CAD. I can see the tree view and it's a normal modes analysis. So, to the normal modes analysis, I'm just going to add some concentrated masses.
