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.
