The BoltLoadState object stores the propagating data of a bolt load in a step. One instance of this object is created internally by the BoltLoad object for each step. The instance is also deleted internally by the BoltLoad object.
The BoltLoadState object has no constructor or methods.
The BoltLoadState object is derived from the LoadState object.
import load mdb.models[name].steps[name].loadStates[name]
The BoltLoadState object has the following members:
A SymbolicConstant specifying the type of bolt load. Possible values are APPLY_FORCE, ADJUST_LENGTH, and FIX_LENGTH.
A SymbolicConstant specifying the propagation state of the bolt load type. Possible values are UNSET, SET, UNCHANGED, and MODIFIED.
A Float specifying the bolt load magnitude.
A SymbolicConstant specifying the propagation state of the bolt load magnitude. Possible values are UNSET, SET, UNCHANGED, and MODIFIED.
A SymbolicConstant specifying the propagation state of the amplitude member. Possible values are UNSET, SET, UNCHANGED, and FREED.
A SymbolicConstant specifying the propagation state of the LoadState object. Possible values are:
NOT_YET_ACTIVE
CREATED
PROPAGATED
MODIFIED
DEACTIVATED
NO_LONGER_ACTIVE
TYPE_NOT_APPLICABLE
INSTANCE_NOT_APPLICABLE
BUILT_INTO_BASE_STATE
A String specifying the name of the amplitude reference. The String is empty if the load has no amplitude reference.
