Point Load
Add a Point Load to points for concentrated forces or moments at points. The loads are defined in the given coordinate system.
Force
Enter values or expressions for the components (x. y, z) of the point load FP.
The Load list normally only contains User defined. When combining the Shell interface with another physics interface, it is also possible to choose a predefined load from this list.
Moment
Enter values or expressions for the components (x. y, z) of the point moment MP.
•
You can add the Phase subnode to specify the phase of this load in a frequency domain analysis.
•
You can specify this load to be a Harmonic Perturbation in a frequency domain analysis.
•
You can assign this load to a load group. See Load Cases in the Structural Mechanics Modeling chapter.
