Array parameters

These APDL commands are used to operate on parameter arrays (vectors and matrices).

Note

Many of these commands are kept for legacy compatibility.

To interact with arrays in a more Pythonic manner, see the parameters class Parameters .

For working with arrays outside of MAPDL, consider using NumPy.

Mapdl.mfouri([oper, coeff, mode, isym, ...])	Calculates the coefficients for, or evaluates, a Fourier series.
Mapdl.mfun([parr, func, par1])	Copies or transposes an array parameter matrix.
Mapdl.moper([parr, par1, oper, val1, val2, ...])	Performs matrix operations on array parameter matrices.
Mapdl.mwrite([parr, fname, ext, label, n1, ...])	Writes a matrix to a file in a formatted sequence.
Mapdl.sread([strarray, fname, ext, nchar, ...])	Reads a file into a string array parameter.
Mapdl.toper([parr, par1, oper, par2, fact1, ...])	Operates on table parameters.
Mapdl.vabs([kabsr, kabs1, kabs2, kabs3])	Applies the absolute value function to array parameters.
Mapdl.vcol([ncol1, ncol2])	Specifies the number of columns in matrix operations.
Mapdl.vcum([key])	Allows array parameter results to add to existing results.
Mapdl.vfact([factr, fact1, fact2, fact3])	Applies a scale factor to array parameters.
Mapdl.vfun([parr, func, par1, con1, con2, con3])	Performs a function on a single array parameter.
Mapdl.vitrp([parr, part, pari, parj, park])	Forms an array parameter by interpolation of a table.
Mapdl.vlen([nrow, ninc])	Specifies the number of rows to be used in array parameter operations.
Mapdl.vmask([par])	Specifies an array parameter as a masking vector.
Mapdl.voper([parr, par1, oper, par2, con1, con2])	Operates on two array parameters.
Mapdl.starvput([parr, entity, entnum, ...])	Restores array parameter values into the ANSYS database.
Mapdl.vscfun([parr, func, par1])	Determines properties of an array parameter.
Mapdl.vstat(**kwargs)	Lists the current specifications for the array parameters.
Mapdl.vwrite([par1, par2, par3, par4, par5, ...])	Writes data to a file in a formatted sequence.
