Does the constant load applied to structure vary with structure deformation in Ansys?

  I'm trying to understand that how does Ansys consider the applied constant force with respect to deformation. Does it keep the constant load same throughout the deformation by default or it changes the constant force value with deformation.

  nAn applied constant Force remains constant at all time throughout the deformation.nIt is possible to define a Follower Force that changes direction to follow the deformation.nIt is possible to insert a spring in the model, and the spring force can change with deformation.n
