Body Load
Add a Body Load to boundaries (for the Plate interface add it to domains). The loads are defined in the given coordinate system.
Force
Enter values or expressions for the components (x, y, z) of the body load FV.
Moment
Enter values or expressions for the components (x, y, z) of the moment body load ML.
After selecting a Load type, the Load list normally only contains User defined. When combining the Shell interface with another physics interface, it is also possible to select a predefined load from this list.
You can add the Phase subnode to specify the phase of this load in a frequency domain analysis.
