N2PNastranInputData#

class NaxToPy.Core.Classes.N2PNastranInputData.N2PNastranInputData(dictcardscston2p: dict, inputfiledata)[source]#

Bases: object

Class with the complete data of a MEF input file (text file).

Note

The property N2PModelContent.ModelInputData can be a N2PNastranInputData if the input file is from Nastran (.bdf) or Opstitruct (.fem), or a N2PAbaqusInputData (.inp) if is from Abaqus.

Example

>>> model = n2p.load_model("my_nastran_input_file.bdf")
>>> inputdata = model.ModelInputData  # This is a N2PNastranInputData
create_card(card_type: str, bdf_file: str, rawContent: str = None, superElemntId: int = 0) → N2PCard[source]#

Method that creates a new card of the type specified. By default, the card is created empty, with small field format.

Example

>>> new_cbar = model.ModelInputData.create_card("CBAR", "C:\bdf\mesh\model.bdf")
>>> # new_cbar is now a N2PCard object of type CBAR empty. You can set its properties:
>>> new_cbar.EID = 1001
>>> new_cbar.PID = 2001
>>> new_cbar.GA = 10
>>> new_cbar.GB = 20
>>> new_cbar.X1 = 1.0
>>> new_cbar.X2 = 0.0
>>> new_cbar.X3 = 0.0

>>> # It is also possible to create a card with raw content and specifying the superelement id:
>>> raw_content = "CBAR        1002    2001      30      40     0.0     1.0     0.0"
>>> new_cbar2 = model.ModelInputData.create_card("CBAR", "C:\bdf\mesh\model.bdf", rawContent=raw_content, superElemntId=0)
find_cards(superElements: int, category: Literal['GRID', 'ELEMENT', 'CONNECTOR', 'PROPERTY', 'MATERIAL', 'COORDINATESYSTEM', 'LOAD', 'CONSTRAINT'], cardTypes: list[str] = None, filters: dict[str, object] = None) → list[N2PCard][source]#

Searches for cards based on specified criteria:

  • superElements (mandatory): integer number of 8 bits (1 byte)

  • category (mandatory): Element, property, material, etc

  • cardTypes (optional): Specific type of card: CQUAD4, PBEAM, COORD2R

  • filters (optional): Each category has common fields. It is possible to filter acordinf to those fields.

    • GRID: “ID”, “CP”, “CD”, “PS”, “SEID”, “X1”, “X2”, “X3”

    • ELEMENT: “EID, “PID”, “NodeArray”

    • CONNECTOR:

    • PROPERTY: “PID”

    • MATERIAL: “MID”

    • COORDINATESYSTEM: “CoordinateSystemIds”, “ReferenceSystemId”

    • LOAD:

    • CONSTRAINT:

Example

>>> grids = model.ModelInputData.find_cards(0, "GRID")
>>> cuads = model.ModelInputData.find_cards(0, "ELEMENT", ["CQUAD4"])
>>> pshell_3 = model.ModelInputData.find_cards(0, "PROPERTY", ["PSHELL"], {"PID": 3})
>>> grids_cp10 = model.ModelInputData.find_cards(0, "GRID", None, {"CP": 10})
get_cards_by_field(fields: list[str], row: int = 0, col: int = 0) → list[N2PCard][source]#

ATTENTION: Deprecated method in version 3.2.0. Use find_cards() instead.

get_failed_cards() → list[N2PCard][source]#

Method that returns a list with the N2PCard objects of the input FEM file that have not been mapped correctly.

print_include_hierarchy() → None[source]#

Function that prints in the console the hierarchy of includes of a Nastran input file.

print_model_directory_structure() → None[source]#

Function that prints in the console the directory structure of a Nastran input file.

rebuild_file(folder: str) → None[source]#

Method that writes the solver input file with the same file structure that was read in the folder is specified

Parameters:

folder – str -> Path of the folder where the file or files will be written.

Bases: object

General class for the information in an input file of Nastran

last_status_message() → None[source]#
