Analysis.create_compl_energy_analysis

classmethod Analysis.create_compl_energy_analysis(form, shape, printout=False, solver='IPOPT', plot=False, max_iter=500, starting_point='loadpath', support_displacement=None, Emethod='simplified')

Create a complementary energy analysis from the elements of the problem (form and shape)

Parameters

  • form (FormDiagram) – _description_

  • shape (Shape) – The shape constraining the problem

  • printout (bool, optional) – Whether or not prints appear in the creen, by default False

  • plot (bool, optional) – Whether or not plots showing intermediate states appear, by default False

  • max_iter (int, optional) – Maximum number of itetations, by default 500

  • starting_point (str, optional) – Which starting point use, by default ‘loadpath’

  • support_displacement (array [nb x 3], optional) – Vector with the displacement applied to the supports, by default None

  • Emethod (str, optional) – Whether or not internal deformations should be considered, by default ‘simplified’ which considers the material rigid

Returns

analysis (Analysis) – The Analysis object
