Hi dears

Would you help me about Abaqus learning?

As I search in diffrent web pages and data base

there is not enough refrences about abaqus tutorials

so How can I learn it as a begining user?

thanks for your help

good luck

hydrostatic pressure

Hi, i am working with ansys multiphysics, i want to apply a hydrostatic pressure, gradient of pressure, as a load on a cylindrical structure. i found that commande on its help "Main Menu> Preprocessor> Loads> Define Loads> Settings> For Surface Ld> Gradient" but i dont know how to use it. is there any recommandation? thx
