Detailed Description
Defines the interface for exporting a deformed geometry to a file The coordinates to be exported are either:
- The coordinate of the reference structure
- the given node coordinate
- the sum of the reference structure coordinate and the given coordinate increment (displacement) The user can specify the three coordinate components (x,y,z) individually.

Member Function Documentation
◆ isAnyCoordinateSet()
|
inherited |
Returns true if any node coordinate needs to be modified.
- Returns
- True if any node coordinate (absolute or increment) is set. False, otherwise.
◆ isXCoordinateSet()
|
inherited |
- Returns
- True if the X node coordinate (absolute or increment) is set. False, otherwise.
◆ isYCoordinateSet()
|
inherited |
- Returns
- True if the Y node coordinate (absolute or increment) is set. False, otherwise.
◆ isZCoordinateSet()
|
inherited |
- Returns
- True if the Z node coordinate (absolute or increment) is set. False, otherwise.
◆ save()
| save | ( | Structure | database | ) |
exports the geometry
- Parameters
-
database the database where all objects are to be stored
Member Data Documentation
◆ node_coor_increment_x
|
inherited |
X node coordinate deviation If the neither the coordinate nor the deviation along a specific axis direction is set (i.e. empty pointer), then the reference coordinates will be used. The dataobject refers to database.indexMapper index space. This coordinate is computed by adding the respective value to the node coordinate of the reference structure.
- Note
- This option is ignored if node_coor_x is set
◆ node_coor_increment_y
|
inherited |
Y node coordinate deviation If the neither the coordinate nor the deviation along a specific axis direction is set (i.e. empty pointer), then the reference coordinates will be used. The dataobject refers to database.indexMapper index space. This coordinate is computed by adding the respective value to the node coordinate of the reference structure.
- Note
- This option is ignored if node_coor_y is set
◆ node_coor_increment_z
|
inherited |
Z node coordinate deviation If the neither the coordinate nor the deviation along a specific axis direction is set (i.e. empty pointer), then the reference coordinates will be used. The dataobject refers to database.indexMapper index space. This coordinate is computed by adding the respective value to the node coordinate of the reference structure.
- Note
- This option is ignored if node_coor_z is set
