Hello,

 

So I am a University user of Radioss - HyperMesh, and I cannot manage to use the load collectors to create what I desire, even with the help of the tips and tricks.

 

For my experience, I would like to create a 2D planary shock wave in the air, and I don't know how to create it.

 

Thanks for your help.

    Yes, sure.

     

    So it is a quite basic scheme.

     

    Green : building.

    Blue : protection.

    Grey : air.

    Red : the layer where I would like the shockwave starts.

     

    The purpose is to create a planary shock wave which starts from the bottom of the simulation and goes forward.

    It's a 2D simulation.

     

    Thank you for your reply.

    Hi,

     

    Did you referred wave propagation from Radioss Examples?See attached screenshot.

    Thank you, I did not saw this one. I still have some issues in creating a function or a curve:

    I hope using curve editor you can insert X&Y entries for any curve.
