Known Subclasses:: StructuralNode

An abstract class for all the nodes. The relative reference frame, the type and the saving operations are performed.

Instance Methods

[hide private]

__init__(self, name='Node') source code

set_relative_from(self, ref)
The relative ReferenceFrame to set data from.

source code

set_default(self)
Will be defined by the derived class

source code

set_type(self, node_type, com=None)
The keyword that identifies the MBDyn type.

source code

collect_parameters(self)
Collect the node parameters

source code

set_parameters(self, para)
Set the parameters saved on the structural node, for retrieving the object status.

source code

init_results(self)
Initialize the results by creating the needed objects to save the parameters of interest during the simulation.

init(self, name=`'Node'`)
(Constructor)

source code

Overrides: common.BasicObject.__init__

set_type(self, node_type, com=None)

source code

The keyword that identifies the MBDyn type. For a StructuralNode, it will be 'static' or 'dynamic'.

collect_parameters(self)

source code

Collect the node parameters

Overrides: record.RecordBase.collect_parameters

set_parameters(self, para)

source code

Set the parameters saved on the structural node, for retrieving the object status.

Overrides: record.RecordBase.set_parameters

init_results(self)

source code

Initialize the results by creating the needed objects to save the parameters of interest during the simulation.

Overrides: record.Record.init_results
