m_n_kappa.boundaries.MinimumCurvature

class m_n_kappa.boundaries.MinimumCurvature(maximum_positive_section_strains, maximum_negative_section_strains, curvature_is_positive, top_edge=None, bottom_edge=None)

Bases: object

store maximum positive and negative section strains for determination of minimum curvature

Parameters:

• maximum_positive_section_strains (list[StrainPosition]) – maximum positive material strains of the sections in the cross_section

• maximum_negative_section_strains (list[StrainPosition]) – maximum negative material strains of the sections in the cross_section

• curvature_is_positive (bool) – if True then positive curvature is assumed, else negative curvature is assumed

• top_edge (float) –

• bottom_edge (float) –
