Hello

I use ocean loading on vertical pile clamped at the bottom. I use PIPE289 element with wave loading. Resultan Morrison Force and Resultant Bending moment in bottom are the same a hand calculations. However, for pressure distribution along pile I get a triangular distrribution with base at the bottom of a pile. I expecteda parabola decreasing till bottom, because this is Morrison distribution of pressure. I used EXT PRESS for pressure distribution.
