StrainLoadOnLine Class

Compatible with IDEA StatiCa Beta 21.0 - beta
Linearly distributed generalized strain load along a line. Strain load is in local coordinate system and there are no possible eccentricities.

Examples
This sample shows how to create a strain load on the line.
C#
Copy
//Creating the model
OpenModel openModel = new OpenModel();

//Create nodes
Point3D pointA = new Point3D();
pointA.X = 0;
pointA.Y = 0;
pointA.Z = 0;
openModel.AddObject(pointA);

Point3D pointB = new Point3D();
pointB.X = 0;
pointB.Y = 0;
pointB.Z = 1.2;
openModel.AddObject(pointB);

Point3D pointC = new Point3D();
pointC.X = 0;
pointC.Y = 0;
pointC.Z = 2.4;
openModel.AddObject(pointC);

//Line between nodes
LineSegment3D line1 = new LineSegment3D();
line1.StartPoint = new ReferenceElement(pointA);
line1.EndPoint = new ReferenceElement(pointB);
//LCS of line
line1.LocalCoordinateSystem = new CoordSystemByZup();
openModel.AddObject(line1);

//Line between nodes
LineSegment3D line2 = new LineSegment3D();
line2.StartPoint = new ReferenceElement(pointB);
line2.EndPoint = new ReferenceElement(pointC);
//LCS of line
line2.LocalCoordinateSystem = new CoordSystemByZup();
openModel.AddObject(line2);

//Load case
LoadCase loadCase = new LoadCase();
//...
openModel.AddObject(loadCase);

    /Uniform strain load on line1 - relative between 0.5-1.0. epsX = -0.0002
