Get value of pressure load ID for the given element ID using tcl.

Vladimir Gantovnik_21974

Guys, I want to get the value of pressure load for the given element ID using tcl.

For example, I can get element ID from Load ID:

hm_getvalue loads=100 dataname=element.id 

But how to get load id from element id? I cannot find suitable dataname to get Load ID:

hm_getvalue elems=225 dataname=????

In my case each element loaded by pressure PLOAD4 cards.

Thank you!

I am pretty sure there is no dataname for this since the pressure isn't part of the definition of the element.  You will probably need to use hm_getcrossreferencedentities.

something like this:

hm_getcrossreferencedentities elems 1371428 7 2 0 0

hm_getmark loads 2
