load application (femap 9.3)

[Roxette]

hello to all, we are two aerospace engineering students and we are preparing a report on the wing structure of an airbus a320.
Unfortunately we have difficulties with the application of the load for the following reason: the semiala is divided into 3 parts, on the first two, starting from the root, a constant load is applied, while in the third part the load varies linearly.
exists on femap a command that allows us to insert the linear equation according to which the load varies? If there is no way to solve this system?
ps: the struttutra has already been meshata.

thanks to all

I think there is a possibility to assign a load that varies according to an equation... but I haven't used femap for a few years and I don't remember where to look for it!
Alternatively, you could split the surfaces where the load is not constant and assign loads "approximate for areas".

ps: curiosity: with what calculation engine do you use femap? nx nastran? innastran?

hi matteo (part of the previous question), would you explain to me what it means to split and how do you do on femap?


ps: we use nx nastran

to "split" I mean to divide the surface into smaller surfaces (better to do so at a cad level, in femap is not very easy) and to allocate to each surface a constant load equal to the corresponding average load (as when the integrals "graphically" are solved with rectangles).

However there is definitely the possibility to assign an equation to a load in femap, we wait for some expert to get the details

Okay, thank you. cmq we solved in femap. we divided the last surface into other small surfaces. Hello!
