Returns the per unit width force on a line in the direction of the specified axis. It is available only for a polyline created by intersecting a locator on a boundary. Momentum data must also be available. The magnitude of the value returned can be thought of as the force in the specified direction on a polyline, if the polyline were 2D with a width of one unit.

forceNorm_y()@Polyline1
calculates
the per unit width force in the Y direction on the selected polyline.
