When combined with the following geometry design objects in Structure View, loads are applied as area, polyline or point:
Create region (plane load on a defined area)
Create polyline (line load)
Create point (concentrated load)
Loading placed on some plate geometry design object(s) dedicated for loading like region, polyline, or point after the meshing process will strictly keep its placement in the boundary of these objects. This circumstance does influence to the meshing process. In case a lot of various placed loading objects on the plate are applied, this could significantly change meshing process with sudden increase of meshing elements. As a result could be sufficiently increased analysis calculation time.
