*compositeanalysis
Analyzes composite materials, plies, sequences, laminates, or elements.
Syntax
*compositeanalysis entity_type <select_type>=<selection> result=<value> output=<value> ?ffunc=<value>? ?loadid=<value>? ?loadcase=<value>?
Type
HyperMesh Tcl Modify Command
Description
Analyzes composite materials, plies, sequences, laminates, or elements.
Inputs
- entity_type
- The type of entity to modify.
- <select_type>=<selection>
- The entity or entities that are to be analyzed. There are several ways to provide the
entities to be modified. Only one option can be used at a time:
- id=<id>
- The ID of the single entity to modify.
- name=<name>
- The name of the single entity to modify.
- mark=<mark_id>
- The ID of the mark containing the entities to modify.
- result=<value>
- The type of result. Valid values are:
- output=<value>
- Specifies where the analysis result is stored. If value begins with a double colon, the result will be stored in a Tcl variable. Otherwise, the parameter is considered as a file name.
- ffunc=<value>
- The design point method ID. Selected entity must have First_Ply_Failure defined as the method. Optional argument used in strength and FPF analysis.
- loadid=<value>
- The list of load entity IDs. Selected load entities must have “Composite plate” defined as the engineering type. Optional argument used in load response and FPF analysis.
- loadcase=<value>
- The list of strings identifying imported result, subcase, and simulation used as load. Optional argument used in load response and FPF analysis when analyzing elements.
Examples
*compositeanalysis mats id=1 result=eng-const output=C:/temp/result.csv
Errors
