Bearing Load [SIG]
- Melis Ceylan

The loads can be applied to the selected bearing by defining the related parameters below.
Bearing Load
Bearing: Specify the bearing at which the load will be applied.
Stage: Specify the stage at which the bearing load will be applied.
Fx: Specify the force applied in elements local X-axis direction.
Fy: Specify the force applied in elements local Y-axis direction.
Fz (Gravity): Specify the force applied in elements local negative Z-axis direction.
Mx: Specify the moment applied around the X-axis.
My: Specify the moment applied around the Y-axis.
Mz: Specify the moment applied around the Z-axis.
Although Fz is applied in the direction of gravity (positive values for Fz will correspond to the downward direction, as with gravity), Mz will have a positive direction relative to the +Z axis or, in other words, in the upward direction.
Loads are applied taking into account bearing rotation angle
The loads defined for the bearings are applied based on the alignment coordinate system for the bearing that has the bearing rotation parameter set to zero degrees.
