Specifying a Torque Force Load
- Select Force from the dropdown menu of the Structural tool in the Physics group of the Simulation tab, or by selecting the Force tool in the Structural condition HUD.
-
Select a face to apply a force.
If your model contains Named Selections, you can click Advanced filters, select Link named selections, and choose one from the list.
- Select Torque to define a Torque force.
-
Enter the torque magnitude.
You can also select Use force components to specify the X, Y, Z components of the force.
-
Discovery determines a normal direction based on the
selected location. Torque forces will be applied about that direction.
You can also define the direction. Use the Direction tool or Alt-click to select an entity (a geometry or direction in the local coordinate system) and align the direction with that entity.
