Mapdl.taxis(parmloc='', naxis='', val1='', val2='', val3='', val4='', val5='', val6='', val7='', val8='', val9='', val10='', **kwargs)#

Defines table index numbers.

Mechanical APDL Command: *TAXIS

Parameters:
parmlocstr

Name and starting location in the table array parameter for indexing. Indexing occurs along the axis defined with nAxis.

naxisstr

Axis along which indexing occurs. Valid labels are:

  • 1 - Corresponds to Row. Default.

  • 2 - Corresponds to Column.

  • 3 - Corresponds to Plane.

  • 4 - Corresponds to Book.

  • 5 - Corresponds to Shelf.

  • ALL - Lists all index numbers. Valid only if Val1 = LIST.

val1str

Values of the index numbers for the axis nAxis, starting from the table array parameter location ParmLoc. You can define up to ten values.

To list the index values specified with nAxis, issue Val1 = LIST. If Val1 = LIST, Val2 - Val10 are ignored.

val2str

Values of the index numbers for the axis nAxis, starting from the table array parameter location ParmLoc. You can define up to ten values.

To list the index values specified with nAxis, issue Val1 = LIST. If Val1 = LIST, Val2 - Val10 are ignored.

val3str

Values of the index numbers for the axis nAxis, starting from the table array parameter location ParmLoc. You can define up to ten values.

To list the index values specified with nAxis, issue Val1 = LIST. If Val1 = LIST, Val2 - Val10 are ignored.

val4str

Values of the index numbers for the axis nAxis, starting from the table array parameter location ParmLoc. You can define up to ten values.

To list the index values specified with nAxis, issue Val1 = LIST. If Val1 = LIST, Val2 - Val10 are ignored.

val5str

Values of the index numbers for the axis nAxis, starting from the table array parameter location ParmLoc. You can define up to ten values.

To list the index values specified with nAxis, issue Val1 = LIST. If Val1 = LIST, Val2 - Val10 are ignored.

val6str

Values of the index numbers for the axis nAxis, starting from the table array parameter location ParmLoc. You can define up to ten values.

To list the index values specified with nAxis, issue Val1 = LIST. If Val1 = LIST, Val2 - Val10 are ignored.

val7str

Values of the index numbers for the axis nAxis, starting from the table array parameter location ParmLoc. You can define up to ten values.

To list the index values specified with nAxis, issue Val1 = LIST. If Val1 = LIST, Val2 - Val10 are ignored.

val8str

Values of the index numbers for the axis nAxis, starting from the table array parameter location ParmLoc. You can define up to ten values.

To list the index values specified with nAxis, issue Val1 = LIST. If Val1 = LIST, Val2 - Val10 are ignored.

val9str

Values of the index numbers for the axis nAxis, starting from the table array parameter location ParmLoc. You can define up to ten values.

To list the index values specified with nAxis, issue Val1 = LIST. If Val1 = LIST, Val2 - Val10 are ignored.

val10str

Values of the index numbers for the axis nAxis, starting from the table array parameter location ParmLoc. You can define up to ten values.

To list the index values specified with nAxis, issue Val1 = LIST. If Val1 = LIST, Val2 - Val10 are ignored.

Argument Descriptions

  • parmloc : str - Name and starting location in the table array parameter for indexing. Indexing occurs along the axis defined with nAxis.

  • naxis : str - Axis along which indexing occurs. Valid labels are:

    • 1 - Corresponds to Row. Default.

    • 2 - Corresponds to Column.

    • 3 - Corresponds to Plane.

    • 4 - Corresponds to Book.

    • 5 - Corresponds to Shelf.

    • ALL - Lists all index numbers. Valid only if Val1 = LIST.

  • val1, val2, val3,..., val10 : str - Values of the index numbers for the axis nAxis, starting from the table array parameter location ParmLoc. You can define up to ten values.

    To list the index values specified with nAxis, issue Val1 = LIST. If Val1 = LIST, Val2 - Val10 are ignored.

taxis is a convenient method to define table index values. These values reside in the zero column, row, etc. Instead of filling values in these zero location spots, use the taxis command. For example,

*TAXIS,longtable(1,4,1,1),2,1.0,2.2,3.5,4.7,5.9

would fill index values 1.0, 2.2, 3.5, 4.7, and 5.9 in nAxis 2 (column location), starting at location 4.

To list index numbers, issue taxis, ParmLoc, nAxis, LIST, where nAxis = 1 through 5 or ALL.
