Within HyperMesh, is there a way to create a formula that will then apply a specific load to each node or element along a linear path? I have been working with the Dyna solver and the only functionality it has is to apply an evenly distributed load to a set of elements.
As an alternative method, I understand (although it seems very complicated) that I could extract the nodes of my element, figure out the distance between each one and then figure out how much of my unevenly distributed load to apply to each one. This alone seems like an egregious amount of work depending on the number of nodes there are.
If anyone has some tips or has done this before, help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
