Model#

class ansys.acp.core.Model(*, name='ACP Model', use_nodal_thicknesses=False, draping_offset_correction=False, angle_tolerance=1.0, relative_thickness_tolerance=0.01, minimum_analysis_ply_thickness=1e-06)#

Defines an ACP Model.

Wrapper for accessing an ACP Model residing on a server.

Parameters:

name (str) – The name of the model.
use_nodal_thicknesses (bool) – Defines whether to use nodal thicknesses or element thicknesses.
draping_offset_correction (bool) – Defines whether to consider lay-up thickness in draping analysis.
angle_tolerance (float) – Section computation angle tolerance (in degree).
relative_thickness_tolerance (float) – Section computation relative thickness tolerance.
minimum_analysis_ply_thickness (float) – Section computation minimum analysis ply thickness (in length unit of model).

Added in ACP server version 24.2.
