Mapdl.gsbdata(labz='', valuez='', labx='', valuex='', laby='', valuey='', **kwargs)

Specifies the constraints or applies the load at the ending point for generalized plane strain option.

Mechanical APDL Command: GSBDATA

Parameters:

labzstr

Constraint or load at the ending point in the fiber Z direction.

• F - Apply a force in the fiber direction (default).

• LFIBER - Define a length change in the fiber direction.

valuezstr

Value for LabZ. The default is zero.

labxstr

Constraint or load on rotation about X.

• MX - Supply a moment to cause the rotation of the ending plane about X (default).

• ROTX - Define a rotation angle (in radians) of the ending plane about X.

valuexstr

Value for LabX. The default is zero.

labystr

Constraint or load on rotation about Y

• MY - Supply a moment to cause the rotation of the ending plane about Y (default).

• ROTY - Define a rotation angle (in radians) of the ending plane about Y.

valueystr

Value for LabY. The default is zero.

Notes

All inputs are in the global Cartesian coordinate system. For more information about the generalized plane strain feature, see Generalized Plane Strain Option of Current-Technology Solid Elements in the Element Reference.

This command is also valid in PREP7.
