Sinusoidally distributed forces

Hello!

 

I would like to apply forces in the inside of an toroid body. I find command to apply constant amplitude forces. But I would like to apply forces that have amplitude depending on the angle and their dependence is sinusoidal.

For better understanding I am attaching the figure below.

 

Thanks for your help.

    Hi,

    the option you are looking for should be found in one of the following:

    - Analysis/Loads/Bearing Pressure (works only if the surface is a cylinder or a partial cylinder, it looks so in the pic)

    - Loads/Create Force /as function of XYZ (but this may request some more clicks).

    @Alessio Librandi thx! Bearing pressure is exactly what I needed!
