Bulk Data Entry
PLOAD2 – Pressure Load on a Two-Dimensional Structural Element
Description
Defines a uniform static pressure load applied to two-dimensional elements. Only QUAD4 or TRIA3 elements may have a pressure load applied to them via this entry. It can also be used to define the EXCITEID field (Amplitude “A”) of dynamic loads in RLOAD1, RLOAD2, TLOAD1 and TLOAD2 bulk data entries.

Field |
Contents |
SID |
Load set identification number. (Integer > 0) |
P |
Pressure value. (Real ≠ 0) |
EID, EID1, EID2 |
Element identification number. At least one positive EID must be present on each PLOAD2 entry. EID must be 0 or blank for omitted entries. (Integer > 0; EID1<EID2) |
| 1. | If the alternate form is used, all elements EID1 through EID2 must be two-dimensional. |
| 2. | The direction of the pressure is computed according to the right-hand rule using the grid point sequence specified on the element entry. Refer to the PLOAD entry. |
| 3. | All elements referenced must exist. |
| 4. | Continuations are not allowed. |
| 5. | This card is represented as a pressure load in HyperMesh. |
