Known Subclasses:: blade.Blade, rotor.Hub, nacelle.Nacelle, tower.Tower

An abstract object with MBDyn nodes and elements. This object is supposed to help the building of custom objects on the top of MBDyn ones by providing a set of methods for adding them to the simulation, being able to save them in files and retrieved them for post processing. Need to be tested, but if it works fine, it could be merged to the MBDyn module.

init(self, name)
(Constructor)

source code

Overrides: BasicObject.__init__

set_node_class(self, node_class)

source code

node_class is a dictonary of class. The first key is the group of the class and the second key the class type. This method is used when using class from the interface, with GTK and VTK widgets, instead of the classic one.

collect_parameters(self)

source code

Collect the object parameters

Overrides: mbdyn.record.RecordBase.collect_parameters

set_parameters(self, para)

source code

Retrieve the object status from the para dictionary.

Overrides: mbdyn.record.RecordBase.set_parameters
