Hi all,

are there any ways to apply an in-plane line load on a shell part in Abaqus (pls see figure)? In figure, I used the type of pressure and I got error "SURFACE ASSEMBLY__PICKEDSURF13 INCLUDES EDGES. EXCEPT FOR SHELL EDGE LOADING, SURFACES WHICH INCLUDE EDGES CANNOT BE USED WITH *DSLOAD, *DSFLUX, *SFILM, *SRADIATE, *DSFLOW, *SFLOW, *DSECHARGE, *DSECURRENT, *SIMPEDANCE OR *INCIDENT WAVE." when running job.

If using "Shell edge load", the load cannot be defined with notice "Region must contain only free shell edges", although it works well if appling on the left edge of the shell part.

Thank you.
