Reaction Force

The reaction of one Support in an analysis result: the force and moment the Support exerts on the part, summed over every point it holds, in world axes — force in N, moment in N·mm about Point. A Support that shares points with another Support is refused, because the two shares of a shared point cannot be told apart.

Inputs

Result Analysis Result

The analysis result to read. Required.

Takes: Static Analysis
Support Boundary Condition

The Support whose reaction is read; it must be in the analysis' load case. Required.

Takes: Bearing Load, Force, Point Force, Pressure, Cylindrical Support, Point Support, Support
Point Point

The point the moment is taken about. Unset: the centroid of the Support's faces.

Takes: any block that gives Point (13 blocks)

Output

Vector

Used by: Rotate, Scale, Warp, Sample Field, Rib Walls, Average, Sum, Unpack Vector, Vector Angle

Properties

Values the block gives besides its output. The editor lists them under Properties, and an input can read one by reference.

Force Vector · N

The force the Support exerts on the part, in world axes, in N.

Moment Vector · N·mm

The moment the Support exerts on the part about Point, in world axes, in N·mm.

Point Point

The point the moment is taken about.
