opstool.pre.section.vis_fiber_sec_real(ele_tag, sec_num=1, color=None, show_matTag=False, highlight_matTag=None, highlight_color='k', ax=None)

Visualizing the actual fiber section data, where only the fiber center coordinates and areas are demonstrated, represents the data used in analysis.

Note

This is applicable for 3D only and not for 2D!

Parameters

ele_tagint

The element ID to which the section belongs, for display purposes.

sec_numint

The section at which Gauss points to display, numbered starting from 1, from i to segment j.

color: str, optional

Defaults to gradient colors, varying based on the distance to the section’s center point.

show_matTagbool, optional

Whether to show the material tag on the fiber. Defaults to False.

highlight_matTagfloat or list of floats

The material tag to highlight, if any. Defaults to None. If listed, then highlight all the materials in the list.
