how to define a radial loading on axisymetric element

[AG1980]

I m defining a radial loading of 1000 N on a axisymetric element. i m not finding the same value as reaction forces.

Can anyone tell me how abaqus interprets a radial loading ???

How does it also interpret a moment input on such elements?

Thank you

The radial load is either per degree or per radian. Should be quick to check which one. I hope this helps.
