Arguments

The basic arguments correspond to those of all tasks (cf. TCL Command TASK). The other arguments are to be entered in the form "key=value".

There are the following additional specific predefined arguments, cf. UI-input LOADQY:

Key	Value	Dimension	Meaning
uload	iunit	INT	Number of the load unit in the cross section
q	qbeg	FORCE/LSTRUCT	Load value at begin
qe	qend	FORCE/LSTRUCT	Load value at end
qm	qmid	FORCE/LSTRUCT	Central load value
pos	pname	TEXT	Load application point
exb	xb	LSTRUCTD	Longitudinal eccentric distance at begin
exe	xe	LSTRUCTD	Longitudinal eccentric distance at end
qfact	qfexpr	TEXT	Factor as mathematical expression
mass	TRUE or FALSE	BOOLEAN	The load is taken into account as a mass or not when calculating the eigenmodes.

Examples

TASK LOADQY 1 LOCAL 0 2 "uload=2" "mass=TRUE" "descr=Road"

The load is geometrically given by a load unit 2 in cross section.

TASK LOADQY 1 LOCAL 0 16 "uload=" "q=10.000" "pos=P3" "qfact=" "descr=Qy_P3_1"

The load is constant 10.0 and the point of application is given in the cross section at point "P3”.
