How to apply loads distributed on lines in ANSYS MECHANICAL APDL 18.1

How to apply loads distributed on lines in ANSYS MECHANICAL APDL 18.1

How to apply loads distributed on lines in ANSYS MECHANICAL APDL 18.1

(OP)
Hi,

I am using ANSYS Mechanical APDL 18 for structural analysis, and I want to apply two types of loads:

-A distributed triangular load w(x)=w0-w0/L*x

-A distributed constant load w=k

I want to distribute these loads on a line across the width of the model

I know I have to create a table load, as it is the only option besides constant load for Pressure applied on lines. I am sending the window in attachment.

What should I put in each cell of the figure to apply what I need to?

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks in advance,
AndradeSilva
