- | ====Entering an incorrect unit system==== | ||
- | If an incorrect unit system is supplied to Rhino when the model is created, the loads and thus danger level applied to the model will likely be significantly different than expected. | ||
- | |||
- | In the following example, a beam is restrained on the left end boundary and has a 1000 N load applied on the right end boundary which causes bending of the beam. | ||
