Ensure That You Change The Text in Red To Suit Your Location of The TH File

This document contains instructions for running a transient dynamic analysis in ANSYS to directly integrate time history data from three arrays (representing displacements in X, Y, and Z directions) applied as boundary conditions. It specifies analysis parameters like time step size, start/end time, damping values, and includes a loop to apply the time histories at each time step over the duration of the analysis.
