result:material property of element

Last update: 31.07.2026

Version: 0.0.0

Description

Loads the appropriate operator based on the data sources and retrieves material properties.

Supported file types

This operator supports the following keys (file formats) for each listed namespace (plugin/solver):

  • mapdl: rst, rstp, rth

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 number Name Status Expected type(s)
3 streams_container streams_container
4 data_sources Required data_sources

streams_container (Pin 3)

data_sources (Pin 4)

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 number Name Expected type(s)
0 material_properties field

material_properties (Pin 0)

  • Expected type(s): field

material properties

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

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++
#include "dpf_api.h"

ansys::dpf::Operator op("MaterialPropertyOfElement"); // operator instantiation
op.connect(3, my_streams_container);
op.connect(4, my_data_sources);
ansys::dpf::Field my_material_properties = op.getOutput<ansys::dpf::Field>(0);
CPython
import ansys.dpf.core as dpf

op = dpf.operators.result.material_property_of_element() # operator instantiation
op.inputs.streams_container.connect(my_streams_container)
op.inputs.data_sources.connect(my_data_sources)
my_material_properties = op.outputs.material_properties()
IPython
import mech_dpf
import Ans.DataProcessing as dpf

op = dpf.operators.result.material_property_of_element() # operator instantiation
op.inputs.streams_container.Connect(my_streams_container)
op.inputs.data_sources.Connect(my_data_sources)
my_material_properties = op.outputs.material_properties.GetData()
