Application method for complex loads with ANSYS APDL

With the issues that the complex loads can't be applied by the existing load forms of the general finite element analysis software,a loading method is put forward for complex loads based on ANSYS APDL by the static analysis of inertial load connecting rod of a marine diesel engine. The mechanics simulation and analysis on the connecting rod under complex loads show that the method can implement the calculation of inertial force of different nodes easily and efficiently and the force loading on large number of nodes.
