Getting Pressure Distribution in Hyperview

Hi all,

 

I am working on a model that I need to apply a pressure distribution to all solid elements of the surface in Hypermesh. Because my pressure distribution is very complex, I want to be able to check the distribution in Hyperview after the modes is solved to ensure it resembles the pressure distribution I was supposed to impose. How would I be able to see the distribution in Hyperview after the model is solved?

 

Thanks

    Please share more details about below points:

     

    Solver used for analysis: 

    Type Of Analysis : 

     

    From above statement what I understood is you are applying pressure distribution and expecting same imposed pressure distribution as output.

    If it is simple static analysis then you can get reaction  forces to crosscheck your results.

    Thanks Rahul,

     

    I am running a static analysis using Optistruct as the solver. what control card should I use to read reaction forces ? 

     

    Thanks
