How to apply a pressure and a traction to a integration point by using VDLOAD

Submitted by hale on

 My aim is to apply a prescribed pressure and traction to a surface.But in the VDLOAD only the array Value(*) can be written, besides the value is one dimension array.

 

Then my questions are that how to apply a prescribed pressure to a integration point in the direction which is normal to the  surface and how to apply a prescribed traction to a integration point in the dierection which is tangential to the surface.

 

Thank you very very much!
