**Version: 0.0.0**

## Description

Computing Euler's Critical Load. Formula: Ncr = n*E*I*pi*pi /(L\*L)

## Inputs

This table lists the input pins for this operator. Input pins define the data that the operator requires to perform its operation. Some inputs are required, while others are optional and provide additional configuration. Each parameter is detailed in the sections that follow the table.

Pin numberNameStatusExpected type(s)**5**[field\_beam\_end\_condition](#input_5)Required[`data_sources`](../../core-concepts/dpf-types.md#data-sources), [`field`](../../core-concepts/dpf-types.md#field)**6**[field\_beam\_moment\_inertia](#input_6)Required[`field`](../../core-concepts/dpf-types.md#field)**7**[field\_beam\_young\_modulus](#input_7)Required[`field`](../../core-concepts/dpf-types.md#field)**8**[field\_beam\_length](#input_8)Required[`field`](../../core-concepts/dpf-types.md#field)<a id="input_5"></a>

### field\_beam\_end\_condition (Pin 5)

- **Required:** Yes
- **Expected type(s):** [`data_sources`](../../core-concepts/dpf-types.md#data-sources), [`field`](../../core-concepts/dpf-types.md#field)

This pin contains file csv or field of beam's end condition added by the user. If there's no file added, it would take value of all beam's end condition as 1.

<a id="input_6"></a>

### field\_beam\_moment\_inertia (Pin 6)

- **Required:** Yes
- **Expected type(s):** [`field`](../../core-concepts/dpf-types.md#field)

Field of beam's moment inertia

<a id="input_7"></a>

### field\_beam\_young\_modulus (Pin 7)

- **Required:** Yes
- **Expected type(s):** [`field`](../../core-concepts/dpf-types.md#field)

Field of beam's young modulus

<a id="input_8"></a>

### field\_beam\_length (Pin 8)

- **Required:** Yes
- **Expected type(s):** [`field`](../../core-concepts/dpf-types.md#field)

Field of beam's length

## Outputs

This table lists the output pins for this operator. Output pins provide the results of the operator's computation and can be connected to inputs of other operators or retrieved for further processing. Each output is detailed in the sections that follow the table.

Pin numberNameExpected type(s)0[field\_euler\_critical\_load](#output_0)[`field`](../../core-concepts/dpf-types.md#field)**1**[field\_euler\_critical\_load\_yy](#output_1)[`field`](../../core-concepts/dpf-types.md#field)**2**[field\_euler\_critical\_load\_zz](#output_2)[`field`](../../core-concepts/dpf-types.md#field)<a id="output_0"></a>

### field\_euler\_critical\_load (Pin 0)

- **Expected type(s):** [`field`](../../core-concepts/dpf-types.md#field)

This field contains Euler's Critical Load about the principle axis of the cross section having the least moment of inertia.

<a id="output_1"></a>

### field\_euler\_critical\_load\_yy (Pin 1)

- **Expected type(s):** [`field`](../../core-concepts/dpf-types.md#field)

This field contains Euler's Critical Load on axis y.

<a id="output_2"></a>

### field\_euler\_critical\_load\_zz (Pin 2)

- **Expected type(s):** [`field`](../../core-concepts/dpf-types.md#field)

This field contains Euler's Critical Load on axis z.

## Configurations

This operator supports [configuration options](../../core-concepts/operator-configurations.md) that modify its behavior.

### [mutex](../../core-concepts/operator-configurations.md#mutex)

- **Expected type(s):** [`bool`](../../core-concepts/dpf-types.md#standard-types)
- **Default value:** false

If this option is set to true, the shared memory is prevented from being simultaneously accessed by multiple threads.

## Examples

These examples demonstrate how to use this operator in different programming environments. Each example shows how to instantiate the operator, connect the required inputs, and retrieve the output.

C++```cpp
#include "dpf_api.h"

ansys::dpf::Operator op("euler_load_buckling"); // operator instantiation
op.connect(5, my_field_beam_end_condition);
op.connect(6, my_field_beam_moment_inertia);
op.connect(7, my_field_beam_young_modulus);
op.connect(8, my_field_beam_length);
ansys::dpf::Field my_field_euler_critical_load = op.getOutput<ansys::dpf::Field>(0);
ansys::dpf::Field my_field_euler_critical_load_yy = op.getOutput<ansys::dpf::Field>(1);
ansys::dpf::Field my_field_euler_critical_load_zz = op.getOutput<ansys::dpf::Field>(2);

```

CPython```python
import ansys.dpf.core as dpf

op = dpf.operators.result.euler_load_buckling() # operator instantiation
op.inputs.field_beam_end_condition.connect(my_field_beam_end_condition)
op.inputs.field_beam_moment_inertia.connect(my_field_beam_moment_inertia)
op.inputs.field_beam_young_modulus.connect(my_field_beam_young_modulus)
op.inputs.field_beam_length.connect(my_field_beam_length)
my_field_euler_critical_load = op.outputs.field_euler_critical_load()
my_field_euler_critical_load_yy = op.outputs.field_euler_critical_load_yy()
my_field_euler_critical_load_zz = op.outputs.field_euler_critical_load_zz()

```

IPython```python
import mech_dpf
import Ans.DataProcessing as dpf

op = dpf.operators.result.euler_load_buckling() # operator instantiation
op.inputs.field_beam_end_condition.Connect(my_field_beam_end_condition)
op.inputs.field_beam_moment_inertia.Connect(my_field_beam_moment_inertia)
op.inputs.field_beam_young_modulus.Connect(my_field_beam_young_modulus)
op.inputs.field_beam_length.Connect(my_field_beam_length)
my_field_euler_critical_load = op.outputs.field_euler_critical_load.GetData()
my_field_euler_critical_load_yy = op.outputs.field_euler_critical_load_yy.GetData()
my_field_euler_critical_load_zz = op.outputs.field_euler_critical_load_zz.GetData()
