calfem.vis_mpl.draw_element_values¶

Purpose:

Draws scalar element values in 2D or 3D.

Syntax:

cfv.draw_element_values(values, coords, edof, dofs_per_node, el_type, displacements=None, draw_elements=True, draw_undisplaced_mesh=False, magnfac=1.0, title=None, color=(0, 0, 0), node_color=(0, 0, 0))

Description:

Source docstring:

Draws scalar element values in 2D or 3D.

Parameters
----------
values : array_like
    An N-by-1 array or a list of scalars. The Scalar values of the elements. ev[i] should be the value of element i.
coords : array_like
    An N-by-2 or N-by-3 array. Row i contains the x,y,z coordinates of node i.
edof : array_like
    An E-by-L array. Element topology. (E is the number of elements and L is the number of dofs per element)
dofs_per_node : int
    Dofs per node.
el_type : int
    Element Type. See Gmsh manual for details. Usually 2 for triangles or 3 for quadrangles.
displacements : array_like, optional
    An N-by-2 or N-by-3 array. Row i contains the x,y,z displacements of node i.
draw_elements : bool, optional
    True if mesh wire should be drawn. Default True.
draw_undisplaced_mesh : bool, optional
    True if the wire of the undisplaced mesh should be drawn on top of the displaced mesh. Default False. Use only if displacements != None.
magnfac : float, optional
    Magnification factor. Displacements are multiplied by this value. Use this to make small displacements more visible.
title : str, optional
    Changes title of the figure. Default "Element Values".
color : tuple or str, optional
    Color of the wire.
node_color : tuple or str, optional
    Color of the nodes.
