problem in eleload

Post by k.manoj »

Dear Dr. Frank:

I cannot use eleload command for the elements where corotational transfomation is specified.
However, I can apply the uniform load as point loads at the ends of the element.
Is there any better way?

Thank you.

you have to use nodal loads with fixed end forces from ele loads if you use corotational.
