29.75.1 Piezoelectric(...)

This method creates a Piezoelectric object.

Path

mdb.models[name].materials[name].Piezoelectric
session.odbs[name].materials[name].Piezoelectric

Required argument

table

A sequence of sequences of Floats specifying the items described below.

Optional arguments

type

A SymbolicConstant specifying the type of material coefficients for the piezoelectric property. Possible values are STRAIN and STRESS. The default value is STRESS.

temperatureDependency

A Boolean specifying whether the data depend on temperature. The default value is OFF.

dependencies

An Int specifying the number of field variable dependencies. The default value is 0.

Table data

If type=STRESS, the table data specify the following:

.

.
Temperature, if the data depend on temperature.
Value of the first field variable, if the data depend on field variables.
Value of the second field variable.
Etc.

If type=STRAIN, the table data specify the following:
