Export RHS/Load vector in full file #26

Closed freej2 closed 6 years ago

freej2 commented 6 years ago

I'm attempting to develop state-space models of a finite element model and while I can get the mass and stiffness matrices through pyansys, I am unable to get the RHS/load vector which is needed to develop a full state-space model. Would it be possible to define a method that would perform this action?

Yes, and it shouldn’t be too hard to add. Can you upload a rst file and a table of rhs values for me to verify my code?

I was able to get the load vector from the HBMAT command in ANSYS Mechanical. The resulting output file is in Harwell Boeing format with the load vectors at the end of the file. I attempted to upload an rst file but github doesn't support that file type.

You could try zipping it or using another file sharing service. Or I could just make my own if that’s too much trouble.
