The available loads are as follows:

• “FORCE_POUTRE”

Allows line forces to be applied

Supported models: TUYAU_3M, TUYAU_6M

• “FORCE_TUYAU”

Allows pressure to be applied to the pipe.

Supported models: TUYAU_3M, TUYAU_6M

• “PESANTEUR”

Allows you to apply a loading type of gravity.

Supported models: TUYAU_3M, TUYAU_6M

The application of thermal expansion loading is performed by defining the keyword factor AFFE_VARC under AFFE_MATERIAU [U4.43.03].
