/distort/set variables

xstrain
Amount of strain in the $x$ direction to apply. $x \to x\times(1+{\sf xstrain})$. In other words, a uniform $\epsilon_{xx}$. Default: 0.
ystrain
Amount of strain in the $y$ direction to apply. $y \to y\times(1+{\sf ystrain})$. In other words, a uniform $\epsilon_{yy}$. Default: 0.
xshift
Amount to shift nodes in the $x$ direction: $x\to x+{\sf xshift}$. Default: 0.
yshift
Amount to shift nodes in the $y$ direction: $y\to y+{\sf yshift}$. Default: 0.
xshear
Amount of shear in the $x$ direction to apply: $x \to x + {\sf xshear}\times y$. In other words, a uniform $\partial u_x/\partial y$, where $u_x$ is the $x$-displacement. This is not the same as the $xy$ component of the strain tensor, which is $(\partial u_x/\partial y + \partial u_y/\partial x)/2$. Default: 0.
yshear
Amount of shear in the $y$ direction to apply: $y \to y + {\sf yshear}\times x$. In other words, a uniform $\partial u_y/\partial x$. Default: 0.
xforce
The $x$ component of force to apply to the nodes. Default: 0.
yforce
The $y$ component of force to apply to the nodes. Default: 0.
incremental
A boolean variable indicating whether the current distortions is absolute or incremental. Default: true (set incremental distortions).
