result:mapdl_section

Version: 0.0.0

Description

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.

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.

properties_name (Pin 0)

• Required: Yes
• Expected type(s): string, vector<string>

section (Pin 1)

• Required: No
• Expected type(s): property_field

Property field that contains a section id per element.(optional)

streams_container (Pin 3)

• Required: Yes
• Expected type(s): streams_container

data_sources (Pin 4)

• Required: Yes
• Expected type(s): data_sources

layer_property (Pin 5)

• Required: No
• Expected type(s): bool

Property requested is layered. Default = False.

layers_requested (Pin 6)

• Required: No
• Expected type(s): vector<int32>

Array with layers requested for the section. Default = AllLayers.

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.

properties_value (Pin 0)

• Expected type(s): fields_container

layers_per_section (Pin 1)

• Expected type(s): property_field

Only available if layer_property option is set to True.

Configurations

This operator supports configuration options that modify its behavior.

mutex

• Expected type(s): bool
• Default value: false

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

Scripting

This operator can be accessed through scripting interfaces using these identifiers.

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.
