struct.beam.moi

Syntax

v := struct.beam.moi(p)

struct.beam.moi(p) := v

Get/set the moment of inertia of the beam.

This is defined as the second moment of inertia with respect to the \(x\)-, \(y\)-, and \(z\)-axes.

Returns:v - moment of inertia vector Accepts:v - moment of inertia vector Arguments:p - pointer to a beam element

Component Access

f := struct.beam.moi (p)->x
struct.beam.moi (p)->x := f

f := struct.beam.moi.x(p)

struct.beam.moi.x(p) := f

Get/set the \(x\)-component of the moment of inertia of the beam.

Returns:f - \(x\)-component of the moment of inertia vector Accepts:f - \(x\)-component of the moment of inertia vector Arguments:p - a pointer to a beam element

Access other vector components (\(y\), \(z\)) by substituting the component name where \(x\) appears above. See Member Access Operator for information about accessing members from data types using ->.

Deprecated Component Access

Component access by adding an optional integer in the function arguments (struct.beam.moi(p,<int>)) is deprecated. It remains available but will not be supported in future versions. See Component Access with Integers in FISH on the Deprecated Commands and FISH page for details.

This is hidden. Added to include remaining vector component access functions for inline help.

f := struct.beam.moi.y(p)

f := struct.beam.moi.z(p)
