opstool.vis.pyvista.plot_truss_responses(odb_tag=1, ele_tags=None, slides=False, show_values=True, resp_type='axialForce', alpha=1.0, line_width=1.5, cpos='iso')

Visualizing Truss Response.

Parameters

odb_tag: Union[int, str], default: 1

Tag of output databases (ODB) to be visualized.

ele_tags: Union[int, list], default: None

The tags of truss elements to be visualized. If None, all truss elements are selected.

slides: bool, default: False

Display the response for each step in the form of a slideshow. Otherwise, show the step with the largest response.

show_values: bool, default: True

Whether to display the response value.

resp_type: str, default: “axialForce”

Response type, optional, one of [“axialForce”, “axialDefo”, “Stress”, “Strain”].

alpha: float, default: 1.0

Scale the size of the response graph.

Note

You can adjust the scale to make the response graph more visible. A negative number will reverse the direction.

line_width: float, default: 1.5.

Line width of the response graph.

cpos: str, default: iso

Model display perspective, optional: “iso”, “xy”, “yx”, “xz”, “zx”, “yz”, “zy”. If 3d, defaults to “iso”. If 2d, defaults to “xy”.

Returns

Plotting object of PyVista to display vtk meshes or numpy arrays. See pyvista.Plotter.

You can use Plotter.show. to display the plotting window.

You can also use Plotter.export_html. to export this plotter as an interactive scene to an HTML file.
