DOF component selection in loads for axisymmetric models (Simcenter Samcef)

In loads for Simcenter Samcef Axisymmetric and Other 2D Structural and Axisymmetric Thermal analyses, you can select only DOF components that correspond to the 2D Solid Option that you select.

For example, when you set 2D Solid Option to ZX Plane, Z Axis, in the Gravity load, you can select DOF components that are in the ZX Plane: the Radial Acceleration and the Axial Acceleration.
