9.37 PorePressureBCState object

The PorePressureBCState object stores the propagating data for a pore pressure boundary condition in a step. One instance of this object is created internally by the PorePressureBC object for each step. The instance is also deleted internally by the PorePressureBC object.

The PorePressureBCState object has no constructor or methods.

The PorePressureBCState object is derived from the BoundaryConditionState object.

9.37.1  Members

The PorePressureBCState object has the following members:

magnitude

A Float specifying the pore pressure magnitude.

magnitudeState

A SymbolicConstant specifying the propagation state of the pore pressure magnitude. Possible values are UNSET, SET, UNCHANGED, FREED, and MODIFIED.

amplitudeState

A SymbolicConstant specifying the propagation state of the amplitude reference. Possible values are UNSET, SET, UNCHANGED, FREED, and MODIFIED.

status

A SymbolicConstant specifying the propagation state of the BoundaryConditionState object. Possible values are:

  • NOT_YET_ACTIVE

  • CREATED

  • PROPAGATED

  • MODIFIED

  • DEACTIVATED

  • NO_LONGER_ACTIVE

  • TYPE_NOT_APPLICABLE

  • INSTANCE_NOT_APPLICABLE

  • PROPAGATED_FROM_BASE_STATE

  • MODIFIED_FROM_BASE_STATE

  • DEACTIVATED_FROM_BASE_STATE

  • BUILT_INTO_MODES

amplitude

A String specifying the name of the amplitude reference. The String is empty if the boundary condition has no amplitude reference.
