how to apply non uniform wind load pressure using dload/dsload in abaqus

[rg1893]

hello everybody
i am a new user to abaqus software. i am working on the effect of wind load on high rise towers in abaqus. i know how the wind pressure varies with height but i am facing problems in applying it in abaqus. how should i write a subroutine for wind load varying with height for example for a column of certain height ? please help...

thank you

If the dependency is related to the location and not too complex, then you might not need a subroutine. In Abaqus/CAE you can create an Analytical Field and enter a python formula that is related to a locale coordinate system and then refer the pressure load to that formula.

See CAE Manual 58.2 Using analytical expression fields
