nodal_rotation#

PostProcessing.nodal_rotation(component='ALL')#

Nodal X, Y, or Z structural rotation

Equilvanent MAPDL commands: :rtype: ndarray

PRNSOL, ROT, X
PRNSOL, ROT, Y
PRNSOL, ROT, Z

Parameters:

componentstr, optional: Structural rotational component to retrieve. Must be 'X', 'Y', 'Z', or 'ALL'. Defaults to 'ALL'.

Returns:

numpy.ndarray: Numpy array with nodal X, Y, Z, or all structural rotations.

Examples

Nodal rotation in all dimensions for current result.

>>> mapdl.post1()
>>> mapdl.set(1, 1)
>>> mapdl.post_processing.nodal_rotation('ALL')
array([[0., 0., 0.],
       [0., 0., 0.],
       [0., 0., 0.],
       ...,
       [0., 0., 0.],
       [0., 0., 0.],
       [0., 0., 0.]])

Nodes corresponding to the nodal rotations.

>>> mapdl.mesh.nnum_all
