Hello everyone!
This is my outward normal traction vector expression: y2-y1/((x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2)^1/2. And I want to impose this expression in ABAQUS but I have no idea to deal with it. So is there any way that can help me to solve the problem? Since I want to impose the traction load on the element face as in the sketch below.
Best idea, especially as a student, is to read Abaques Documentation. Also these links may help.
