Inputs

mark
The mark ID containing elements which should have pressures applied to them.
face nodes
The mark ID containing nodes which lie on the face of one or more elements (solids only).
x comp
The x component of the pressure.
y comp
The y component of the pressure.
z comp
The z component of the pressure.
magnitude
The magnitude of the pressure.
break angle
The break angle of a solid face.
on face
A logical which determines whether pressures are being applied to faces.

Example

If you set x comp, y comp, or z comp to zero, a pressure is applied.

If you assign a value to x comp, y comp, or z comp, a traction is applied.
