plot_nodal_elastic_component_strain

PostProcessing.plot_nodal_elastic_component_strain(component, show_node_numbering=False, **kwargs)

Plot nodal elastic component strain.

Parameters:

componentstr

Nodal elastic component to plot. Must be 'X', 'Y', 'Z', 'XY', 'YZ', or 'XZ'.

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 elastic principal strain “1” for the second result set.

>>> mapdl.post1()
>>> mapdl.set(1, 2)
>>> mapdl.post_processing.plot_nodal_elastic_component_strain('1')
