Description
Creates pressure loads on elements.
Inputs
- mark
- The mark ID containing elements which should have pressures applied to them.
- face_nodes
- The mark ID containing nodes which lie on the face of one or more elements (solids only).
- x_comp
- The x component of the pressure.
- y_comp
- The y component of the pressure.
- z_comp
- The z component of the pressure.
- magnitude
- The magnitude of the pressure.
- break_angle
- The break angle of a solid face.
- on_face
- A logical which determines whether pressures are being applied to faces.
Example
If you set x comp, y comp, or z comp to zero, a pressure is applied.
If you assign a value to x comp, y comp, or z comp, a traction is applied.
