result:members in bending not certified
Last update: 31.07.2026Version: 0.0.0
Description
This operator is a non-certified example of buckling resistance verification for the bending members. It is only provided as an example if you want to develop your own compute norm operator. The results computed by this beta operator have not been certified by ANSYS. ANSYS declines all responsibility for the use of this operator. HATS Beam and irregular beams (unequal I-Beam, not-square Channel-Beam, not-square Angle L-beam, unequal hollow rectangular beam) not supported.
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) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | time_scoping | scoping, vector<int32>, int32 |
|
| 1 | field_yield_strength | Required | field |
| 2 | class_cross_section | Required | bool |
| 3 | streams | streams_container |
|
| 4 | data_sources | data_sources |
|
| 6 | partial_factor | Required | double |
| 7 | mesh | Required | abstract_meshed_region |
| 8 | bending_moment_y | Required | fields_container |
| 9 | bending_moment_z | Required | fields_container |
time_scoping (Pin 0)
- Required: No
- Expected type(s):
scoping,vector<int32>,int32
field_yield_strength (Pin 1)
- Required: Yes
- Expected type(s):
field
This pin contains field of beam's Yield Strength defined by the user.
class_cross_section (Pin 2)
- Required: Yes
- Expected type(s):
bool
Selection for a cross-section. True: Class 1 or 2 cross-sections. False: Class 3 cross section. If the user defines the cross section as class 1 or 2, the section modulus would be plastic section modulus. If it's class 3- cross section,the section modulus would be elastic section modulus
streams (Pin 3)
- Required: No
- Expected type(s):
streams_container
result file container allowed to be kept open to cache data.
data_sources (Pin 4)
- Required: No
- Expected type(s):
data_sources
result file path container, used if no streams are set.
partial_factor (Pin 6)
- Required: Yes
- Expected type(s):
double
partial safety factor for resistance of members to instability assessed by member checks. Default value: 1.
mesh (Pin 7)
- Required: Yes
- Expected type(s):
abstract_meshed_region
Mesh containing beam's properties defined by user
bending_moment_y (Pin 8)
- Required: Yes
- Expected type(s):
fields_container
Fields Container of bending moment on axis y defined by user
bending_moment_z (Pin 9)
- Required: Yes
- Expected type(s):
fields_container
Fields Container of bending moment on axis z defined by user
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 | buckling_resistance_bending_yy | fields_container |
| 1 | buckling_resistance_bending_zz | fields_container |
buckling_resistance_bending_yy (Pin 0)
- Expected type(s):
fields_container
Fields Container of buckling resistance factor on axis y-y in case of bending(M). These factors should be less than 1 and positive.
buckling_resistance_bending_zz (Pin 1)
- Expected type(s):
fields_container
Fields Container of buckling resistance factor on axis z-z in case of bending(M). These factors should be less than 1 and positive.
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.
