hm_getelemcheckvalues
Returns the check value for elements from within a selection.
Syntax
hm_getelemcheckvalues mark_id dimension check_type ?time_failure?
Type
HyperMesh Tcl Query Command
Description
This command returns a single list containing alternating values of element IDs and the corresponding check value for that element. Only the elements on mark_id and of the specified dimension are considered when determining which elements and values are returned.
Inputs
- mark_id
- The ID of the mark containing the elements. Valid values are 1 and 2.
- dimension
- The dimension of the elements on mark_id to consider. Valid values are:
- check_type
- The type of element check to return the bounds from. The allowable values depend on the dimension specified:
- ?time_failure?
- The value to use as a threshold beyond which the input elements should be considered to have failed the test. This is required only when check_type is set to addedmass.
Examples
To get the length value for all 1D elements in comp1:
*createmark elems 1 "by collector name" comp1
set elemvals [hm_getelemcheckvalues 1 1 length]
To get the warpage value for all displayed 2D elements:
*createmark elems 1 displayed
set elemvals [hm_getelemcheckvalues 1 2 warpage]
To get the jacobian of all 3D elements:
*createmark elems 1 all
set elemvals [hm_getelemcheckvalues 1 3 jacobian]
Errors
if { [ catch {command_name...} ] } {
# Handle error
}
