m_n_kappa.points.MKappa#

class m_n_kappa.points.MKappa(cross_section, applied_axial_force=0.0, maximum_iterations=10, axial_force_tolerance=5.0, solver=<class 'm_n_kappa.solver.Newton'>, is_called_by_user=True)#

Bases: Point

base class for computation of one Moment-Curvature-Point by varying the neutral axis

New in version 0.1.0.

works as base-class for MKappaByStrainPosition and MKappaByConstantCurvature

Parameters:

cross_section (Crossection) – cross-section to compute
applied_axial_force (float) – applied axial force (Default: 0.0)
maximum_iterations (int) – maximum allowed iterations (Default: 10). In case the given number of iterations before axial force within desired tolerance, the computation is classified as not successful and will be stopped
axial_force_tolerance (float) – if axial force within this tolerance the computation is terminated and classified as successful (Default: 5.0)
solver (Solver) – used solver (Default: Newton)
is_called_by_user (bool) –

Methods

`axial_force_equilibrium`()	latest computed axial-force-value
