27.30 ConnectorMomentState object

The ConnectorMomentState object stores the propagating data for a connector moment in a step. One instance of this object is created internally by the ConnectorMoment object for each step. The instance is also deleted internally by the ConnectorMoment object.

The ConnectorMomentState object has no constructor or methods.

The ConnectorMomentState object is derived from the LoadState object.

27.30.1  Members

The ConnectorMomentState object has the following members:

m1

A Float or a Complex specifying the connector moment component in the connector's local 4-direction. Although m1, m2, and m3 are optional arguments, at least one of them must be nonzero.

m2

A Float or a Complex specifying the connector moment component in the connector's local 5direction.

m3

A Float or a Complex specifying the connector moment component in the connector's local 6-direction.

m1State

A SymbolicConstant specifying the propagation state of the load component in the connector's local 4-direction. Possible values are UNSET, SET, UNCHANGED, and FREED.

m2State

A SymbolicConstant specifying the propagation state of the load component in the connector's local 5-direction. Possible values are UNSET, SET, UNCHANGED, and FREED.

m3State

A SymbolicConstant specifying the propagation state of the load component in the connector's local 6-direction. Possible values are UNSET, SET, UNCHANGED, and FREED.

amplitudeState

A SymbolicConstant specifying the propagation state of the amplitude member. Possible values are UNSET, SET, UNCHANGED, and FREED.

status

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

amplitude

A String specifying the name of the amplitude reference. The String is empty if the load has no amplitude reference.
