Hydrostatic load - CCX

Tim_GowingTim_Gowing
Victor,
I find the hydrostatic loading very useful. I don't believe that this loading is available for running CCX from Mecway; is this a possible/planned enhancement?
Regards, Tim

    I might add it for linear analysis by exporting it as node forces. It won't work for non-linear though because they won't follow the moving mesh, and from what I can tell, CCX doesn't support non-uniform pressure loads without writing a user subroutine and recompiling.

    I forgot about this, but you can use normal pressure and enter a formula to make it a linear function of position. That's the same as hydrostatic pressure when the edge of the selected faces is along the free surface.

    Victor,
    Thank you, the export of node forces will be great.
    I will try the normal pressure with formula in the meantime.
    Regards, Tim
