The choice of boundary conditions will affect the mode shapes and frequencies of
the part. Carefully consider how the model is constrained.

At least one type of thermal condition containing temperature {T} should be present
to bound the problem (prevent the thermal equivalent of rigid-body motion).

In the example shown, 2 radiation boundaries are defined with different emissivity. By
sharing a common enclosure number, view factors will be calculated for all surfaces.

Note the reference to Step End Time should be viewed as a tracking mechanism
only. The term time here does not imply we are doing a transient analysis.

Generally, loads are applied in the same way as with a single step
analysis. There are some additional considerations, however:
For loads that will remain constant over all steps, input a
magnitude just as with single step analyses.
The graph and table will reflect the value.
Note: Since we are dealing with static analysis, the fact that a load is
shown as ramped is of no consequence.

For example, if you retrieve a result from time = 2.5635 (as below), you could
interpret this as the point within step 3 where approximately 56% of the load
has been applied.

Solution combinations are valid for static and transient structural analyses.
