      In Abaqus *DLOAD can be used to define the variation of the distributed load magnitude as a function of position, time, element number, load integration point number, etc.;which seem to update to the current position in a nonlinear analysis. I want to know if there is any possibility in ANSYS?

      In Ansys, pressure can be a function of the current time, X, Y, Z, temperature, sector number, element number and node number as shown below in Table 3.5.16.1 of the APDL Basic Analysis Guide.  If you give me your specific requirement I could show how.
