By using the function of the surface parameters, it gives the values of the forces on the faces you chose, and the forces are displayed in x-y-z components. My questions are "Why would the forces be displayed with a negative sign when clearly they should be positive?" "Are the forces negative because they are reaction forces?" "How can I actaully determine if the forces are negative or positive?"
