They´re all claddings with load distribution one way in panel Local Y direction. You can see below that The local y axis (green) for your panels are not exactly on the radial direction.

You need to align your local y axis with the radial direction using the Local system orientation(for panels) dialog.

But anyway , the loads applied to your claddings will not be distributed correctly to your surronding beams because the arc discretization for your panels and your beams are different.

Try to redo your panels contours based on the surronding beams nodes
