Hi,
I am trying to parametrize a bridge model and I am trying to include the loads in the grasshopper definition as well. For this, I need to model a moving load to simulate the car wheels. I know how to achieve this using the line load+series components, but I am not sure if it is possible to do this using a free polygon load. The issue is that if loads are placed as concentrated point loads, it results in unrealistic stress concentrations, especially in steel shells. Therefore, a uniform distribution over the wheel contact area would be ideal. Is there a way to achieve this cleanly in grasshopper?
Thank you in advance
