Hello ,

With Ansys.

How we can model a surface stress not normal to the surface but it is on the surface and always in the Vertical direction , i.e. arbitrary surface traction vector on the surface ?

similar to

SF, Nlist, Lab, VALUE, VALUE2
SFFUN, Lab, Par, Par2
Specifies a varying surface load.

but how we can control the applying direction to become in the vertical direction on the nodes


Thanks a lot
