Apply inclined and/ or non-uniform pressure on shell or liner

Hi All, according to the manual, only uniform pressure (normal to the surface) can be applied on the liner or shell elements. Is there any convenient way to apply inclined and/ or non-uniform pressure on shell or liner? Looks like we will have to manually calculate equivalent concentrated force on each load and then apply via “structure node apply …”?

Unfortunately, currently there is no command for an inclined and/or non-uniform pressure on shell or liner. Please instead use the FISH intrinsics:
struct.node.apply(STRUCT_NODE_PNT<,INT>)
struct.node.apply.local(STRUCT_NODE_PNT)
and write a small FISH function to do the job.
