Signature¶
def sdynpy.fem.sdynpy_beam.rect_beam_props(E, rho, nu, b, h=None, nelem=None)Return beam keyword dictionary for a rectangular beam.
Returns parameters that can be used in the beamkm function for a beam of uniform rectangular cross-section.
Parameters¶
E : float Young’s Modulus
rho : float Density
nu : float Poisson’s Ratio
b : float Thickness of the beam in the direction of bend_direction_1
h : float Thickness of the beam in the direction of bend_direction_2. If it is not specified, a square cross section is assumed.
nelem : int Number of elements. This will repeat the values in the dict nelem times, as is required by beamkm. If not specified, only a single value will be output for each entry in the dict.
Returns¶
kwargs : dict A dictionary that can be used in beamkm(**kwargs).
