Torque (hwx.inspire.core)¶
A torque is a twisting force.
It is a type of load and can be applied either to a face or the center of a hole, in which case it acts on the interior face of the hole.

Attribute Details¶
active : Bool¶
Returns or sets the object activeness.
Setting this on or off sets all children. Setting to True sets all the parents active too.
color : Color¶
The color assigned to the boundary condition.
connectionRadius : Double (units=”length”)¶
The search radius for the boundary condition.
connectionType : Enum (rigid, flexible)¶
The type of the connection. Valid choices are:
rigid
flexible
direction : Direction¶
The direction of vector the boundary condition.
distributed : Bool¶
Returns whether the applied boundary condition is distributed or not.
Boundary conditions applied across the entire feature area (for faces) or length (for edges) are distributed and at a single point boundary conditions are non-distributed.
features : Attribute¶
The list of features to which the boundary condition is applied.
localToPart : Bool¶
Returns or sets ‘Rotate with part’.
It makes boundary condition not to rotate or rotate along with its associated part.
location : Location (units=”length”)¶
The location of the boundary condition.
magnitude : Double (units=”moment”)¶
Returns the magnitude of the torque.
mode : Enum (direction, components)¶
Specifies the mode of the boundary condition.
Valid choices are:
direction
components
name : Attribute¶
Returns or sets the name of the object.
It can be any text string, including spaces, although it’s best to avoid using the following characters: ” ‘ * ? and $.
While these characters are allowed, they could create difficulties when you export the model to other applications.
part : Attribute¶
Returns the part on which the entity is applied graphically.
parts : Attribute¶
The list of parts on which the boundary condition is applied.
visible : Bool¶
Determines whether the boundary condition is visible or not.
Method Details¶
- classmethod getClass(cls, className)¶
Returns the class of the object.
It can be simple or qualified (with namespace). If the name is simple, we prepend the cls.namespace.
- param className
The class name.

Union[Part, Occurrence, Named..]
- returns
The class for the specified className.
- rtype
Union[Part, Occurrence, Named..]

Imports boundary conditions to the active model from a csv file.
- param csvFile
Csv file name containing all the BC information.
- type csvFile
str
- returns
List of error msgs that happened during import of all the boundary conditions.
- rtype
list
- __new__(cls, features, location=None, direction=None, magnitude=None, isRemote=False, **kwds)¶

Point
- param magnitude
Magnitude of the torque.
- type magnitude
float
- param isRemote
To specify load as remote.
- type isRemote
bool
- param **kwds
To set other attributes to torque. e.g.: color=”red”.

Torque
- destroy(self)¶
Delete the object removing it from the model.
The object may come back due to an undo/redo.
- getAllChildren(self, type=None, **kwds)¶
Returns a list of all children that matches the specified type.

list[Union[Part, Motor, BoundaryCondition, …]]
- getChild(self, name=None, recursive=False, **kwds)¶
Returns the child of the object which matches the specified unique name.
- param name
The name of the child object.
- type name
str
- param recursive
Search all descendents.
- type recursive
bool
- param **kwds
Additional keyword arguments to match attributes of the object.
- returns
The child object which satisfies the specified filters.

- param recursive
- type recursive
bool
- param **kwds
Filter objects using isa.
- returns
set[Named]
- getReferences(self, recursive=False, **kwds)¶
Get objects this object references through a Reference attribute.
- param recursive

Additional keyword arguments to match other attributes.
- returns
True, if a match is found, otherwise False.
- rtype
bool
- modelPositions(self)¶
Forces all objects to return the original model positions instead of the current analysis positions.
Useful when defining draw methods on GeneralObjects where behaviour is different while animating.
- updatePosition(self, m44)¶
Update the position by multiplying input M44 matrix.
