Iterative Loads for Desired Deflection?

The loading and geometry isn't linear at all. I was hoping you could set up Pro/Mech to vary one specific load to see what force it would take to create a specific displacement at another point.
 
Hello soccer8888,


Yes , you can create a Measure feature(the deflection at a point, make sure you create that point first) and sweep your load through the range of values you are interested in.


Cheers,


Michael
 
I recall seeing the 'measure' feature, but how do I do a load sweep as you described? Or did you just mean manually enter in a different load every analysis?
