ansys.mapdl.core.Mapdl.rforce#
- Mapdl.rforce(nvar='', node='', item='', comp='', name='', **kwargs)#
Specifies the total reaction force data to be stored.
Mechanical APDL Command: RFORCE
- Parameters:
- nvar
str
Arbitrary reference number assigned to this variable (2 to NV ( numvar )). Overwrites any existing results for this variable.
- node
str
Node for which data are to be stored. If
NODE
= P, graphical picking is enabled (valid only in the GUI).- item
str
Label identifying the item. Valid item labels are shown in the table below. Some items also require a component label.
- comp
str
Component of the item (if required). Valid component labels are shown in the table below.
- name
str
Thirty-two character name identifying the item on printouts and displays. Defaults to an eight character label formed by concatenating the first four characters of the
Item
andComp
labels.
- nvar
Notes
Defines the total reaction force data (static, damping, and inertial components) to be stored from single pass ( antype,STATIC or TRANS) solutions or from the expansion pass of mode- superposition ( antype,HARMIC or TRANS) solutions.
