Bulk Data Entry

FORCE1 – Static Force, Alternate Form 1

Description

Used to define a static force by specification of a value and two grid points that determine the direction. It can also be used to define the EXCITEID field (Amplitude “A”) of dynamic loads in RLOAD1, RLOAD2, TLOAD1 and TLOAD2 bulk data entries. Additionally, the FORCE1 entry can be defined as Follower Loads in Large Displacement Nonlinear Analysis.

Field

Contents

SID

Load set identification number.

(Integer > 0)

G

Grid point identification number.

(Integer > 0)

F

Value of force.

(Real)

Comments

1.The static force applied to grid point G is:

BMP00023-a

where, BMP00023-b is a unit vector parallel to a vector from G1 to G2.

2.This card is represented as a force load in HyperMesh.
