Return results values of specified type at node for element. All options (loadcase, transformation, Wood-Armer, composite layer, etc) will be taken from the current view If an UnitSet object (or its name) is given, the value will be returned in those units. Otherwise it will be returned in the database's current unit system. Note that for efficiency the requested results are cached and will not be removed from the system (and so will potentially use a large amount of memory) until explicitly removed with a call to flushScriptedResults
| node | integer or IFNode | local node (0..nNodes-1) or node pointer |
| entity | string | Results entity i.e. "Stress - Thick Shell" etc.. |
| component | string | Sx, Sy, Sxy, etc.. See element reference manual for details |
| units | optional IFUnitSet | |
| loadcase | optional IFLoadset | If this variable is given, and the currently active loadcase is an envelope, the variable will be set to the results loadcase that caused the result |
| Return value | double | results value |
Example
nodes = element.getNodes()
' loop nodes
for k = 0 to ubound(nodes)
' get node results
mx=element.getNodeResults(nodes(k), "STRESS","Mx")
