We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Hey It is possible to apply a spatially varying load. But there are some limitations to the load types you can apply it with.

Check out the above link to know about supported load types and how to apply them.

Here is the help link for pressure load varying spatially in particular.

You can use multiple time steps with these loads to successfully simulate loads that vary with 'x' and with 't'.

Thanks.
