Analyze the application of wind loads and seismic loads on the designed tower
Thread Content
When using Workbench to analyze taller towers, how should wind loads and seismic loads be applied? Since the reference calculation program divides the cylinder into n sections to calculate the horizontal load on each section, can Workbench also divide the structure into n parts and apply a horizontal force to each side? I saw information online about applying acceleration; could someone with experience give me some guidance? This acceleration formula remains a fixed value. Thank you!
I think when we consider explosive loads in mechanical design, it’s in bars
