Constant pressure

Hello,
I'm new to Comsol and I'm trying to explore its features to be able to use this programm in my studies. So my first question is pretty easy, but I havent found it by myself.
How do I apply full load pressure to a plate? To the whole plate and also to a small part of it.
Thanks in advance!

Hi
in which physics ?
if in structural you ca use a boundary load, and define a total pressure, or a load vector or a distributed load vector. For BCs, please thing of quantities realted to the mesh elements, hecnce by default everything is in "densities". Forces are in N/m^2 for boundaries by default which is equivalent to a pressure ONLY for the surface normal component, not in all generality

Good luck
