Model.applyresultsasloads#

Model.applyresultsasloads(collection, multiplier, datatype, loadtype, loadcomp)#

Create loads at an entity’s nodes based on a models result information. Requires the result data to be loaded via the deprecated HyperMesh post-processing infrastructure.

Parameters:

  • collection (Collection) – The collection containing the entities with nodes.

  • multiplier (double) – The multiplier to apply to the result.

  • datatype (hwString) – The data type.

  • loadtype (hwString) –

    The type of load to create.

    For vector datatypes:

    forces

    moments

    velocities

    accels

    For scalar datatypes:

    temp temp

    flux flux

  • loadcomp (hwString) –

    The load component. The value is only used for vector data types; it should be set to 0 for scalar data types. It may be specified as one of the following:

    For vector datatypes:

    total

    comp1 comp1

    comp2 comp2

    comp3 comp3

    For scalar datatypes:

    0

Example#

Apply load results use Applied Forces from Subcase 1 in the .res file model.res use total component to all nodes#
import hm
import hm.entities as ent

model = hm.Model()

model.applyresultsasloads(collection=hm.Collection(model,ent.Node),multiplier=1.0,datatype="Applied Forces",loadtype="forces",loadcomp="total")
