set/get local eccentricity of cross section
Public propertyelemIds
return list of element identifiers to which the cross section is to be attached.
Public propertyfamily
set/get the family of the cross section
Public propertyfamilyID
unique identifier of cross section. Excluded country in order to avoid problems in case of user defined families which consist of cross sections of different countries
Public propertyguid
GUID of the cross section
Public propertyhasEccent
return true of cross section has a locally defined eccentricity
Public propertyIsValid
return true of the cross section is valid (has e.g. non-zero area)
Public propertymaterial
set/get material of the element
Public propertymaterialName
name of the basic material attached to the cross section
Public propertyname
set/get the name of the cross section
Public propertynDims
number of dimensional
Protected propertynProps
return the number of properties of the cross section
Public propertyprops
default cross section properties
Public propertyuser_defined
indicates whether a cross section is user-defined or generated (e.g. a default material)
Public propertyzm
distance of center of shear from upper section boundary
Public propertyzs
distance of center of gravity from upper section boundary

Methods
  NameDescription
Public methodaccept
accept a cross section visitor
Public methodaddDuplicate
add this cross section to fe-model
Public methodAddElemId
add an element identifier to the list of element identifiers which define to which elements the cross SectionForce shall be attached in the course of assemblage.
Public methodcalculateProperties
calculate cross-section properties from given geometry
Public methodclearElemIds
empty the list of identifiers to which the cross section shall be attached.
Public methodClone
shallow clone the cross section
Public methodcloneElemIds
clone the list of identifiers to which the cross section is to be attached. Needs to be done before it is changed in order to avoid side-effects in GH-definitions.
Public methodcrossSectionHasNoResistance
test whether cross section has zero resisting moment or area for cross section design
Protected methoddefaultGuid
return the cross sections default guid
Public methodenlistAllMaterials
set the material based on the material identifier and a mapping from material identifiers to indexes
Protected methodStatic memberenlistMaterial
return a material based on its reference or name. Add it to the list of materials if not already present
Public methodEquals
Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodfe_ind
return cross section index of sub cross section in the finite element model
Public methodFECroSecDefault
create fe-cross-sections from default cross section
Public methodFECroSecs(Model)
create fe-cross-section for given height with family-index 0
Public methodFECroSecs(Model, Int32)
create fe-cross-sections
Protected methodFinalize
Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodGetHashCode
Serves as the default hash function.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodgetHeight
return the height of the cross section. Is useful for shell-elements which can thus also use beam-cross sections
Public methodgetHeight(Int32)
returns the height of a sub-cross section in case of composite cross sections
Public methodgetThickness
get thickness of cross section
Public methodGetType
Gets the Type of the current instance.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodheights
constructs a list of heights associated with the cross section. Can be time-consuming. For single item access use getHeight(index)
Public methodisDefault
returns true if cross section has default properties
Public methodmatchId
test whether the cross section matches one of the identifiers given in the list of indexes
Public methodmatchIds
test whether the cross section matches one of the identifiers given in the list of indexes
Public methodmaxWidth
return the maximum width of the cross section or -1 in case this does not make sense (for e.g. shell cross sections)
Protected methodMemberwiseClone
Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodminmaxEps
determine extreme strains in cross-section
Public methodmodifyEcceZ
modify the local eccentricity in Z-direction
Public methodmodifyHeight
modify the height of the cross section
Public methodmodifyHeights
modify the heights of the cross section
Public methodmodifyThickness
modifies the thickness of a cross section
Public methodread
Read cross section data from reader
Public methodreadFromTableRow
reads cross section data from given table row
Public methodrenewGuid
create new GUID for the cross section
Public methodrenewGuid(Guid)
set new GUID for the cross section
Protected methodsetDefaults
set default dimensions of cross section
Public methodsetMaterial(FemMaterial)
set the material identifier and the material reference of the cross section
Public methodsetMaterial(ListFemMaterial)
set the material identifiers and the material references of the cross section. Sets material of layer 0 in case of shells.
Public methodshape
returns the shape indicator of a cross section (for e.g. reading data from a table). This can be e.g. 'O', 'I', 'T', '[]',...
Public methodsketch
add vertices on cross-section to mesh and corresponding colors origin is the point on the element axis, axis the local coordinate system, cmap contains the information for coloring points and n_faces the number of points to be calculated
Public methodsketchGroupSizes
return list of group-sizes of faces that form one geometric entity. Enables cross-section sketches to consist of more than one connected surface. By default there is only one group.
Public methodstiffness
calculate characteristic axial- and bending stiffness of an element of length L
Public methodToString
Returns a string that represents the current object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodToString(String)
render cross section data as string for output.
Public methodtrait
return value of trait with given index
Public methodwrite
Write cross section data contained to a reader
Public methodwriteToTableRow
generate value of property info as a string which can be used in a cross section table
