Ring Load
Add a Ring Load to points located at R > 0 in axially symmetric models. Select this feature from the Points submenu.
Force
Select the Load type — Force per unit length (the default) or Total force. Enter values or expressions for FL or Ftot.f
•
The Load list normally only contains User defined. When combining with another physics interface that can provide this type of load, it is also possible to choose a predefined load from this list.
•
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.
