Pressure as a function of coordinates

Is there a straight forward way of varying a pressure or force in workbench mechanical such that the pressure/force is described by an equation containing one or two spacial coordinates?

I can put in a normal pressure as a function of one of x, y or z, but I want a normal pressure as a function of y and x (theta) and a 'shear' pressure as a function of z. Seems like a normal pressure containing more than 1 coordinate doesn't work, and other pressures won't work with any coordinate variables.

Am I missing something obvious here?
