A Very silly abaqus question... applying a wind load
Tue, 2013-09-17 03:02 - Lekshmi Dinachandran
Dear All,
Sorry to ask such a silly question but I am quite new to Abaqus... I am trying to model a tower exposed to wind. I know how the wind pressure varies according to height, but what I dont know is how to model it in abaqus... Also, if i apply a pressure load, then the load will act normally at all points on the surface, right? But in actuality wind doesnt act that way... Could anyone help me out on this one?
Thanks and Regards,
Lekshmi
