class
itasca.sel.beam.
Beam
- Objects of this type should not be created (instantiated) directly in Python. Use the module functions that return instances of this type.
-
area
() → float. Get the cross-section area of a beam.
-
collection
() → int. Get the collection ID of a given beam.
-
dir
() → vec. Get the beam beam direction (vector).
-
dir_x
() → float. Get the x-component of the beam beam direction.
-
dir_y
() → float. Get the y-component of the beam beam direction.
-
dir_z
() → float. Get the z-component of the beam beam direction.
-
extra
(slot: int) → any. Get the beam extra data in the given slot.
-
force_axial
() → float. Get the axial force on the beam.
-
force_thermal
() → float. Get the themral force on a beam.
-
group
([slot: str or int]) → str. Get the beam group name in a given slot.
-
group_remove
(group_name: str or int[, slot: str or int]) → bool. Remove from the given group from all group slots of the beam. One argument of type string, giving the group name, is required. The return value is a bool which is True if the group was removed from any slot, otherwise False.
-
groups
() → {slot: group_name}. Get a dictionary describing which groups this beam is part of. The keys of the dictionary are the slot names and the values are the group names.
-
id
() → int. Get the beam id.
-
in_group
(group_name: str or int[, slot: str or int]) → bool. Test if the beam is part of a given group. If the optional argument slot is given, only that slot is searched. Otherwise, all group slots are searched.
-
index
() → int. Get a beam index (offset).
-
length
() → float. Get the length of the beam element.
-
matnum
() → int. Get the material number for a beam element.
-
node
(int) → node_ptr. Get a node of a beam element.
-
normal_stiffness
() → float. Get the normal stiffness (force/displacement) of the interface between the beam element and the rock/soil.
-
normal_strength
() → float. Get the normal (tensile) strength of the interface between the beam element and the rock/soil. Units are force.
-
pos
() → vec. Get the beam beam position (vector).
-
pos_x
() → float. Get the x-component of the beam beam position.
-
pos_y
() → float. Get the y-component of the beam beam position.
-
pos_z
() → float. Get the z-component of the beam beam position.
-
set_area
(float) → None. Set the cross-section area of a beam.
-
set_extra
(slot: int, value: any) → None. Set the beam extra data in the given slot.
-
set_group
(group_name: str or int[, slot: str or int]) → None. Set the beam group name in a given slot.
-
shear_cohesion
() → float. Get the cohesion at the interface of the beam element and the rock/soil.
-
shear_friction
() → float. Get the friction angle (in degrees) of the interface of the beam element and the soil/rock.
-
shear_stiffness
() → float. Get the shear stiffness (Force / displacement) at the interface between the beam element and the rock/soil.
-
state
() → string. Get the beam element state, by indicator.
-
strain_axial
() → float. Get the axial strain on the beam.
-
stress_axial
() → float. Get the axial stress on the beam.
-
thermalexp
() → float. Get the thermal expansion coefficient of a beam element.
-
valid
() → bool. Returns True if this beam is live.
-
young
() → float. Get the Young’s modulus of a beam element.
