I have bolt pretensions and other loads induced on the part prior to when the pressure needs to be applied. <\/p>\n<p>I have got this to work but with a fair bit of workaround. I&#039;m seeking a sleeker solution. I found this discussion which uses the solution I found for plotting the pressures along the axis, and it works great. It is exactly what I want, aside from not being able to change which load step the pressure is applied in. <\/p>\n<p>This is the discussion using the solution I implemented:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/forum\/discussion\/23227\/how-to-apply-a-pressure-load-which-varies-with-respect-to-radius-of-annulus-in-workbench\" rel=\"nofollow\">\/forum\/discussion\/23227\/how-to-apply-a-pressure-load-which-varies-with-respect-to-radius-of-annulus-in-workbench<\/a><\/p>\n<p>My solution for the time issue is I opened the .dat file for my part and located the table setup created by the table I created in the pressure object. The table has &quot;TIME&quot; defined in the *DIM command and it is defaulted to time 0-1, as shown below:<\/p>\n<div class=\"embedExternal embedImage\">\n<div class=\"embedExternal-content\">\n<a class=\"embedImage-link\" href=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/forum-uploads\/442\/Z3BYMLAG167H.png\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"embedImage-img\" src=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/forum-uploads\/442\/Z3BYMLAG167H.png\" alt=\"image.png\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-168989","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry","topic-tag-ansys-mechanical","topic-tag-ansys-workbench","topic-tag-apdl","topic-tag-static-structural"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_btv_view_count":["1009"],"_bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_bbp_subscription":["254781"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_status":["publish"],"_bbp_topic_id":["168989"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27791"],"_bbp_engagement":["23687","254781"],"_bbp_voice_count":["2"],"_bbp_reply_count":["1"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["213409"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["213409"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2022-05-04 14:32:30"]},"test":"joseph-stanley2ngc-com"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/168989","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/168989\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=168989"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
