Hi, 

I am currently working on a project related to piezoelectric energy harvesting. I need to model an Unimorph cantilever beam harvester undergoing a base acceleration of 1g in ABAQUS. The result require is the voltage output of the Harvester under 1g acceleration across 1 - 10 Hz frequency sweep. Can someone please guide me through this? Do i need to use Steady State dynamics direct or Dynamic Implicit as the solver? How can i assign the base acceleration? Thank you so much in advance.
