Step 7: Launch the Static Structural Program
Double-click on the Model cell to launch the Static Structural program.
Click on Geometry in the Outline. In the Details of “Geometry,” the
following options are available for 2D Behavior: plane stress,
axisymmetric, plane strain, generalized plane strain (assuming a finite
length in the z direction, as opposed to the infinite value assumed for
the standard plane stain option), and by body (allowing you to set 2D
behavior options for individual bodies that appear under Geometry in the
outline). Choose Plan Stress as the desired 2D Behavior

then Pressure
In the Details of “Pressure”, click on the arc as shown below and apply it
to the Geometry selection. The Edge Selection filter must be turned on
to allow this selection. Choose Vector for the Define By field, and enter
“2e6” for Magnitude. Click on the vertical line as shown below and click
Apply to confirm on the Direction selection. Make sure the vector is
pointing downward. If not, click the left or right arrow at the bottom left
