Keywords

The keywords module can be used to interact with LS-DYNA keywords.

Overview

The keywords` module of PyDyna provides Python libraries to build an Ansys LS-DYNA keyword deck.

Usage

Here’s an example of how you can generate a *SECTION_TSHELL` keyword:

>>> from ansys.dyna.core.keywords import keywords
>>> shell = keywords.SectionTShell()
>>> shell
*SECTION_TSHELL
$#   secid    elform      shrf       nip     propt        qr     icomp    tshear
                   1       1.0         2       1.0         0         0         0

Examples
