59.74 Piezoelectric object

The Piezoelectric object specifies piezoelectric material properties.

Access
materialApi.materials()[name].piezoelectric()


59.74.1 Piezoelectric(...)

This method creates a Piezoelectric object.

Path
materialApi.materials()[name].Piezoelectric
Prototype
odb_Piezoelectric&
Piezoelectric(const odb_SequenceSequenceDouble& table,
              const odb_String& type,
              bool temperatureDependency,
              int dependencies);

Required argument

table

An odb_SequenceSequenceDouble specifying the items described below.

Optional arguments

type

An odb_String 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 false.

dependencies

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