Model.createjointelement_twonoded(type, node1, node2, orientation, o_node1, o_node2, o_system1, o_system2, property)#

Creates a two-noded joint element.

Parameters:

  • type (int) – Element type to create. Valid values are 1 and 25 through 33.

  • node1 (Entity) – The ID of the first node.

  • node2 (Entity) – The ID of the second node.

  • orientation (int) –

    A flag indicating how the orientation of the element is defined. Valid values are:

    0 - None.

    1 - Systems.

    2 - Nodes.

  • o_node1 (Entity) – The node entity of the first orientation node. Ignore, if orientation is not 2.

  • o_node2 (Entity) – The node entity of the second orientation node. Ignore, if orientation is not 1.

  • o_system1 (Entity) – The system entity of the first orientation system. Ignore, if orientation is not 2.

  • o_system2 (Entity) – The system entity of the second orientation system. Ignore, if orientation is not 1.

  • property (hwString) – The property name to assign to the element.
