Parameters

ForceType

Type of force as defined in swsForceType_e (see Remarks)

SelectionType

Type of selection as defined in swsSelectionType_e

RefDirType

Type of RefGeom to specify direction of this force:

• 0 = edge
• 1 = axis
• 2 = face or plane
• -1 = no direction reference

(see Remarks)

InterpolationMode

Interpolation mode as defined in swsTableDrivenInterpolationType_e; only used in calculation if NonUniformLoadDistDef is swsBeamNonUniformLoadDef_e.swsTableDrivenLoad

DistPercentageOpt

Table-driven distribution option as defined in swsTableDrivenDistOption_e; only used in calculation if NonUniformLoadDistDef is swsBeamNonUniformLoadDef_e.swsTableDrivenLoad

NumOfRows

Number of rows for a table-driven nonuniform distribution; only used in calculation if NonUniformLoadDistDef is swsBeamNonUniformLoadDef_e.swsTableDrivenLoad

DistValue

Array of the percentage or absolute distances of the forces along the beam for a table-driven nonuniform distribution; only used in calculation if NonUniformLoadDistDef is swsBeamNonUniformLoadDef_e.swsTableDrivenLoad; specify an empty array for a non-beam force

ForceValue

Array of the values of the forces along the beam for a table-driven nonuniform distribution; only used in calculation if NonUniformLoadDistDef is swsBeamNonUniformLoadDef_e.swsTableDrivenLoad; specify an empty array for a non-beam force

NonUniformLoading

True for nonuniform distribution, false for uniform distribution

NULoadingOnBeam

True for nonuniform distribution along a beam, false for uniform distribution along a beam

NonUniformLoadDistDef

Definition of nonuniform distribution along a beam as defined in swsBeamNonUniformLoadDef_e; valid only if NULoadingOnBeam is true

NonUniformLoadDistType

Type of nonuniform distribution along a beam as defined in swsBeamNonUniformLoadType_e; valid only if NULoadingOnBeam is true

Ucode

Components in Comps to use for a force in a selected direction:

• 1 = Fx
• 2 = Fy
• 4 = Fz
• 8 = Mx
• 16 = My
• 32 = Mz

For combinations of forces and moments in various directions, add up the corresponding values; use 0 for a normal force

(see Remarks)

TorqueNFVal

Torque or normal force value; valid only if:

• RefDirType is -1
• ForceType is not swsForceType_e.swsForceTypeForceOrMoment

For beams, valid only for swsBeamNonUniformLoadDef_e.swsTotalLoad or swsBeamNonUniformLoadDef_e.swsCentralLoad

Comps

Array of force and moment component values; set elements to use in Ucode; for beams, valid only if NonUniformLoadDistDef is swsBeamNonUniformLoadDef_e.swsTotalLoad or swsBeamNonUniformLoadDef_e.swsCentralLoad (see Remarks)

FlipOrigin

True to flip the beam origin, false to not; only used if NonUniformLoadDistDef is swsBeamNonUniformLoadDef_e.swsTableDrivenLoad

IsCurvedBeam

True if the beam is curved, false if the beam is straight

DispArray

Array of entities to which to apply this force

RefGeom

Reference direction entity used to indicate the direction of force; valid only if RefDirType is not -1 (see Remarks)

PerUnitLength

True to change the unit of the force or moment value to a per unit length, false to not; valid only if SelectionType is swsSelectionType_e.swsSelectionBeams

ErrorCode

Error as defined in swsForceError_e

Return Value

You must specify Comps with a non-empty array of non-zero elements for all ForceTypes. Use Ucode to specify which elements of the Comps array to use for forces in a selected direction.
