TensorLocalToGlobal

Transforms tensors relative to a local system to the global system.

Inputs

src
A tensor value table.
elems
An elemental entity table.
coords
A coordinate tensor value table.
systems
A system entity table.
elemSysMethod
The element system method for the model. Valid values are "Bisect" (default value) or "Midpoint" (to be used for all Radioss models).

Outputs

answer
A tensor value table.

Comments

  • All vectors in coords must be relative to the global system.
  • All tensors in src must be in the same pool as the corresponding entities in nodes or elems.
  • elemSysMethod is only applicable for Element-bound vectors and is specific to quadrilateral elements only.

Syntax
