FEA Property

Structure for the property tuple = ("Property Name", "Value"). "Property Name" defines the reference capsGroup for the property being specified. The "Value" can either be a JSON String dictionary (see Section JSON String Dictionary) or a single string keyword (see Section Single Value String).

JSON String Dictionary

If "Value" is JSON string dictionary the following keywords ( = default values) may be used:

  • propertyType = No Default value
    Type of property to apply to a given capsGroup Name. Options: ConcentratedMass, Shell
  • membraneThickness = 0.0
    Membrane thickness.
  • massPerArea = 0.0
    Mass per unit area.
  • massOffset = [0.0, 0.0, 0.0]
    Offset distance from the grid point to the center of gravity for a concentrated mass.
  • massInertia = [0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0]
    Mass moment of inertia measured at the mass center of gravity.

Single Value String

If "Value" is a string, the string value may correspond to an entry in a predefined property lookup table. NOT YET IMPLEMENTED!!!!
