Direction definition for the Wind Simulation

Direction definition for the Wind Simulation

Please provide opportunity to control "Direction definition" for the "Wind Simulation", probably in similar pattern as it implemented in seismic analysis.

For an example now we have X+Y+. It is mean X+=1.0 Y+=1 Normalized X+=0.7071 Y+=0.7071 but sometime we need to change the angle.

Thank you.

We can create the model in the different angle to the wind in one model and in another model apply the wind pressure, but I think that it would be easier to get the wind pressure in the different angles in one model. Thank you.

You have a choice of eight wind directions in the Wind Simulation feature.

And for each selected direction there is a separate load case generated.

Isn't it enough?

That is what I want to say that there only orthogonal direction or 45 degree. In our company we apply the wind in diagonal of the building. As I wrote above it also work if create some models to apply the wind in different angles and then copy wind loads from one model to another one. Thank you.
