Hi everyone,

In the image below, I want to put a pressure of 2000N on the surface area of the umbrella shell structure (designed by Candela) in the -Z direction. I want this 1) on the surface itself, 2) on the horizontal projection of the surface. The shell is membrane with no thickness, so putting gravity on, is no solution I think.

I really hope, some people can explain me cleary how to solve this problem.

Thanks in advance!

Jaep
