mapdl_section class

Namespace: Ans.DataProcessing.operators.result

Summary

Read the values of the section properties for a given section property field (property field that contains section information for each element of a mesh). The following keys can be used: Thickness, NumLayers. For layered elements, the following keys can be used: Thickness, MatID, Orientation, NumIntPoints.

available inputs: properties_name (string), section (PropertyField) (optional), streams_container (StreamsContainer), data_sources (DataSources), layer_property (bool) (optional), layers_requested (IList int, System.Collections.IEnumerable) (optional)

available outputs: properties_value (FieldsContainer), layers_per_section (PropertyField)

Example

op = mapdl_section()

op = mapdl_section(properties_name=my_properties_name,section=my_section,streams_container=my_streams_container,data_sources=my_data_sources,layer_property=my_layer_property,layers_requested=my_layers_requested)
