mdplot

Mapdl.mdplot(function='', dmpname='', scale='', **kwargs)

Plots frequency-dependent modal damping coefficients calculated by

APDL Command: MDPLOT DMPEXT.

Parameters:

function

Function to display.

d_coeff - Damping coefficient

s_coeff - Squeeze coefficient

d_ratio - Damping ratio

s_ratio - Squeeze stiffness ratio

dmpname

Array parameter name where damping information is stored. Defaults to d_damp.

scale

Indicates whether to perform a linear or a double logarithmic plot.

LIN - Perform a linear plot. Default

LOG - Perform a double logarithmic plot.
