The following article describes the use of the load.sin command. This command defines a sinusoidal load.

Syntax

load.sin(node,dof,alpha,omega,phi)

where

Parameter	description	type	default
node	The acting node	integer	-
dof	The acting dof	float	-
alpha	Width	float	-
omega	Frequency	float	-
phi	Angle	float	-
