Point Load
Add a Point Load to points for concentrated forces at points in 2D and 3D.
Layer Selection
This section is only present in the in the Layered Shell interface, where it is described in the documentation for the Point Load node.
Force
Enter values or expressions for the components of the point load Fp.
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.
