loads following deformation shape

Hi,

¿how to perform a load which follows the deformed shape of the structure?

 

I mean, for example an horizontal load. Instead of being always perfectly parallel to X axis, to be perpendicular to the bar.FOLLOWER LOAD.PNG

There is no such option in the current version of Robot.

Understood.

 

On the other hand, could you please explain me in the bar nº 4 of the attached file there is no deformation? I did all the combinations to understand.

Alos, what for is absolute/relative?

 

Thanks

I have to admit that asking me to find the answer based on a picture rather than a model is sometimes challenging Smiley Wink

 

Is the local Z perpendicular to the screen? If yes, set the projection to the isometric view.

I forgot to attach the file.

The use of local and projected together hasn't got any physical sense since there in such definition of the load there is no definition of the plane on which to project the load . In short such load is not applied. What is more it cannot be defined in the corresponding load definition dialog.

 

The relative vs. absolute are for a situation when you want to define load on a part of a bar only.
