Hi all,

Does anyone know if it is possible to specify a spatially varying load across an element using UTRACLOAD? Specifically, I want to specify a linearly varying load that varies from 0 to 1 across the edge of a single element.

I'm not sure if this is possible given that even the analytical field function of abaqus cae simplifies the loadings to be constant for a given element...

Thanks!
