In the Define tab, define *DLOAD cards on individual elements or geometry (surfaces) as well as on element sets.  There are seven different DLOAD types available: default (Pressure), centrifugal, rotary acceleration, gravity, pressure in pipe/elbow, hydro pressure, and hydro pressure in pipe/elbow.

Only default (Pressure) type DLOAD can be created on an individual element or geometry in HyperMesh.  The other types are available only for element sets.

It is recommended that you use only one type of DLOAD in a load collector in HyperMesh.  If you need to use multiple types of DLOAD in the same STEP, define each type in a separate load collector and add them to the same load step.

You can define DLOAD on elements, geometry, or element sets.  For Define DLOAD on:, the following options are available:

Elements or geometry
Element sets

 

The layout of the Define tab changes, based on your selection.
