OOF2: The Manual

Name

Element Set (ElementSampleSet) — Data will be integrated over Element areas.

Synopsis

ElementSampleSet(order)

Details

  • Base class: SampleSet
  • Parameters:

    order
    Set the order of integration to use during this computation. Type: An integer, or the string 'automatic'.

Description

SampleSet objects are part of the post-solution analysis framework, in which useful data is extracted from the Mesh. The SampleSet determines how data is extracted from the sampling Domain. When sampling is set to ElementSampleSet, data is integrated over the area of the Elements in the Domain.

The ElementSampleSet belongs to the element SampleSet category.

The order parameter determines the Gaussian integration order. Higher values will give more accurate results, at the cost of more computer time.
