IntegratedOutputSection(...)
This method creates an IntegratedOutputSection object.
Path
mdb.models[name].IntegratedOutputSection
Required arguments
- name
A String specifying the repository key.
Optional arguments
- surface
A Region object specifying the surface over which the output is based.
- refPoint
None or a Region object specifying the anchor point about which the integrated moment over the output region is computed or the SymbolicConstant None representing the global origin. The default value is None.
- refPointAtCenter
A Boolean specifying that the refPoint be adjusted so that it coincides with the center of the output region in the initial configuration. This argument is valid only when you include the refPoint argument. The default value is OFF.
- refPointMotion
A SymbolicConstant specifying how to relate the motion of refPoint to the average motion of the output region. A value of INDEPENDENT will allow the refPoint to move independent of the output region. A value of AVERAGE_TRANSLATION will set the displacement of the refPoint equal to the average translation of the output region. A value of AVERAGE will set the displacement and rotation of the refPoint equal to the average translation of the output region. The default value is INDEPENDENT.
This argument is valid only when you include the refPoint argument.
- localCsys
None or a DatumCsys object specifying the local coordinate system used to express vector output. If localCsys=None, the degrees of freedom are defined in the global coordinate system. The default value is None.
- projectOrientation
A Boolean specifying that the coordinate system be projected onto the surface such that the 1–axis is normal to the surface. Projection onto a planar surface is such that the 1-axis is normal to the surface, and a projection onto a nonplanar surface is such that a least-squares fit surface will be used. The default value is OFF.
Return value
An IntegratedOutputSection object.
Exceptions
None.
