Postprocessing

The post-processing module mainly handles the saving and reading of model and response data. Most responses are returned in the DataArray and DataSet formats of xarray for easy retrieval.

Utilities

opstool.post.set_odb_path(path)	Set the output directory for the results saving.
opstool.post.update_unit_system([pre, post])	Set the unit system will be used for post-processing.
opstool.post.reset_unit_system()	Reset unit system for post-processing.

Data Saving

Model, Eigenvalue and Linear Buckling Analysis Response Preservation:

opstool.post.save_model_data([odb_tag])	Save the model data from the current domain.
opstool.post.save_eigen_data([odb_tag, ...])	Save modal analysis data.
opstool.post.save_linear_buckling_data(kmat, ...)	Save linear buckling analysis data.

The built-in step response data by opstool is saved

opstool.post.CreateODB([odb_tag, model_update])

Create an output database (ODB) to save response data.

Result Reading

Retrive the response data:

opstool.post.get_model_data([odb_tag, ...])	Read model data from a file.
opstool.post.get_eigen_data([odb_tag])	Get the eigenvalue data from the saved file.
opstool.post.get_linear_buckling_data([odb_tag])	Get the linear buckling analysis data from the saved file.
opstool.post.get_nodal_responses(odb_tag[, ...])	Read nodal responses data from a file.
opstool.post.get_element_responses(odb_tag, ...)	Read nodal responses data from a file.
opstool.post.get_sensitivity_responses(odb_tag)	Read sensitivity responses data from a file.
