v3.04.304 SSLV304 — Cylinder under variable external pressure

Summary:

The objective of this test case is to validate the application of pressure on an axisymmetric structure, based on a Fourier series decomposition of the load (modeling AXIS_FOURIER).

The pressure applied is a function of the three coordinates of space \((r,\theta ,z)\).
