struct.liner.shear.stress

Syntax

f := struct.liner.shear.stress(p,inode<,iside>)

Get the stress magnitude in the shear coupling spring at node inode (inode ∈ {1, 2, 3}). The coupling spring lies in the tangent plane of the liner surface at side iside. The direction in which force is acting is given by struct.liner.shear.dir.

Returns:

f - stress magnitude

Arguments:

p - pointer to a liner element

inode - node number in the element, inode ∈ {1, 2, 3}

iside - optional side indicator, e.g., 1 or 2, the default value is 1
