Usfos Loads

Following basic loads are available, and are described in detail under Basic_Loads:

• Concentrated (nodal) loads.
• Distributed Beam loads.
• Distributed Plate/Shell Loads (Local Pressure)
• Distributed Shell load (Global, Conservative)
• Temperature Loads
• Prescribed Nodal Displacment
• Prescribed Nodal Velocity
• Prescribed Nodal Acceleration
• General Acceleration Fields. Both translation fields and Rotation fields
• Time Dependent Masses (weights)
  
  

In addition to the basic loads listed above, special loads, genreated by Usfos are available. Theses loads are described under Hydrodynamics and Aerodynamics.

• Wave Loads (several wave therories).
• Current
• Buoyancy
• Wind Loads (Static mean wind and Fluctuating, dynamic Wind)
