Below questions refer to brick elements in SM2015.
1. Is it possible to create Pressure load [example unit N/mm2] on surface with local cylindircal coordinate system? I am only able to use this local system for vertices subentities with point forces...
2. Lets consider Pressure load on planar surface. Brick in definition are from isotropic material, without midside nodes, with not enforced compatibility and 2nd order integration. How SM translates pressure to each brick vertices, does it change for point forces ? Or maybe 2nd order algorithm takes into account singular brick's wall surface behaviour under such pressure.
Thanks !
