How can I apply pressure load directly to elements, without creating a surface? My model is imported from an LS-DYNA deck using the drop test module and has no solid geometry so I cannot create a surface. I have elements already in a set.
Thanks.
Hi,
the procedure to apply pressure to shell elements:
-create contact surface on shell elements (mind the normal orientation) using surfSeg card image
or use SURF card image surface set
-create a curve defining pressure vs. time
-in BC's manager (under Utility) select type Pressure load and reference surface set/contact surface and curve
