Attributes
----------
name: str
A String specifying the boundary condition repository key.
distributionType: SymbolicConstant
A SymbolicConstant specifying how the boundary condition is distributed spatially.
Possible values are UNIFORM and USER_DEFINED. The default value is UNIFORM.
category: SymbolicConstant
A SymbolicConstant specifying the category of the boundary condition. Possible values
are MECHANICAL and THERMAL.

localCsys: str
None or a :py:class:`~abaqus.Datum.DatumCsys.DatumCsys` object specifying the local coordinate system of the boundary
condition's degrees of freedom. If **localCsys=None**, the degrees of freedom are defined

Parameters
----------
name
A String specifying the boundary condition repository key.
createStepName
A String specifying the name of the step in which the boundary condition is created.
region
A Region object specifying the region to which the boundary condition is applied.
component1
A Complex, or a SymbolicConstant specifying the magnetic vector potential component in
the 1-direction. Possible values for the SymbolicConstant are UNSET and SET. The default
value is UNSET
component2
A Complex, or a SymbolicConstant specifying the magnetic vector potential component in
the 2-direction. Possible values for the SymbolicConstant are UNSET and SET. The default
value is UNSET.
component3
A Complex, or a SymbolicConstant specifying the magnetic vector potential component in
the 3-direction. Possible values for the SymbolicConstant are UNSET and SET. The default
value is UNSET.
amplitude
A String or the SymbolicConstant UNSET specifying the name of the amplitude reference.
UNSET should be used if the boundary condition has no amplitude reference. The default
value is UNSET. You should provide the *amplitude* argument only if it is valid for the
specified step.
distributionType
A SymbolicConstant specifying how the boundary condition is distributed spatially.
Possible values are UNIFORM and USER_DEFINED. The default value is UNIFORM.
localCsys
None or a DatumCsys object specifying the local coordinate system of the boundary
condition's degrees of freedom. If *localCsys*=None, the degrees of freedom are defined
in the global coordinate system. The default value is None.
Returns
-------
A MagneticVectorPotentialBC object.
