assign_torque#

Maxwell3d.assign_torque(assignment, coordinate_system='Global', is_positive=True, is_virtual=True, axis='Z', torque_name=None)[source]#

Assign a torque to one or more objects.

Torque assignment can be calculated based upon the solver type. For 3D solvers the available solution types are: Magnetostatic, Electrostatic, Eddy Current, Transient and Electric Transient. For 2D solvers the available solution types are: Magnetostatic, Electrostatic, Eddy Current and Transient.

Parameters:
assignmentstr or list

One or more objects to assign the torque to.

coordinate_systemstr, optional

Name of the reference coordinate system. The default is "Global".

is_positivebool, optional

Whether the torque is positive. The default is True.

is_virtualbool, optional

Whether the torque is virtual. The default is True.

axisstr, optional

Axis to apply the torque to. The default is "Z".

torque_namestr, optional

Name of the torque. The default is None, in which case the default name is used.

Returns:
bool

True when successful, False when failed.
