27.52 PressureState object

The PressureState object stores the propagating data for a pressure in a step. One instance of this object is created internally by the Pressure object for each step. The instance is also deleted internally by the Pressure object.

The PressureState object has no constructor or methods.

The PressureState object is derived from the LoadState object.

27.52.1  Members

The PressureState object has the following members:

magnitude

A Float or a Complex specifying the pressure magnitude.

magnitudeState

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

hZero

A Float specifying the height of the zero pressure level when the pressure distributionType=HYDROSTATIC.

hZeroState

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

hReference

A Float specifying the height of the reference pressure level when the pressure distributionType=HYDROSTATIC.

hReferenceState

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

amplitudeState

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

status

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

  • NOT_YET_ACTIVE

  • CREATED

  • PROPAGATED

  • MODIFIED

  • DEACTIVATED

  • NO_LONGER_ACTIVE

  • TYPE_NOT_APPLICABLE

  • INSTANCE_NOT_APPLICABLE

  • BUILT_INTO_BASE_STATE

amplitude

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