Dear REEF3D Team:
I have a question: I have calculated the scour depth of the pier by the water flow, and now I want to output the water flow force data on the surface of the pier, how should I deal with this? I used P 81 to define a force calculation range, but the output data is only "time, Fx, Fy, Fz", and the data format I want is "x, y, z, Fx", where "x, y, z" represent the three-dimensional point on the surface of the pier, and "Fx" represents the water flow force in the direction of the point x(or other direction). Looking forward to hearing from you. |

Hei.
I don't know of any option that would do exactly what you want. However, you could try is defining multiple force boxes with P 81, minimum size will be one cell, and use that to get your area distributed forces. |
