Property Containers & Functions

The GlobalProperty, ElementProperty, MaterialProperty and SolutionProperty classes are designed to manage global properties, element properties, material properties and solution properties. Global properties consist of quantities such as overall problem title, dimensionality, etc. Element properties consist of quantities such as shell element thickness, spring element stiffness, etc. Material properties consist of primitive material quantities such as Young’s modulus, Poisson’s ratio, coefficient of thermal expansion, thermal conductivity, etc. Solution properties consist of solution step parameters such as load case and restraint case identifiers, load factors, number of eigenvalues to be obtained, etc. The Tabular Curves manages tabular functions such as material data as a function of temperature or load factor as a function of time.
