plot_nodal_contact_friction_stress

PostProcessing.plot_nodal_contact_friction_stress(show_node_numbering=False, **kwargs)

Plot the nodal contact friction stress of the current result.

Parameters:

show_node_numberingbool, optional

Plot the node numbers of surface nodes.

**kwargsdict, optional

Keyword arguments passed to MapdlPlotter.

Returns:

pyvista.plotting.renderer.CameraPosition

Camera position from plotter. Can be reused as an input parameter to use the same camera position for future plots. Only returned when return_cpos is True.

pyvista.Plotter

PyVista Plotter. In this case, the plotter is shown yet, so you can still edit it using PyVista Plotter methods. Only when return_plotter kwarg is True.

Notes

If graphics_backend=GraphicsBackend.PYVISTA (default), this function uses MapdlPlotter You can pass key arguments to MapdlPlotter using kwargs argument. For example, show_axes , background, etc.

Examples

Plot the nodal contact friction stress for the second result.

>>> mapdl.post1()
>>> mapdl.set(1, 2)
>>> mapdl.post_processing.plot_nodal_contact_friction_stress()

Plot off_screen and save a screenshot.

>>> mapdl.post_processing.plot_nodal_contact_friction_stress(off_screen=True,
...                                                          savefig='seqv_00.png')

Subselect a single result type and plot those strain results.

>>> mapdl.esel('S', 'TYPE', vmin=1)
>>> mapdl.post_processing.plot_nodal_contact_friction_stress(smooth_shading=True)
