Source code for abaqus.Load.SurfaceCurrentState

from abaqusConstants import *
from .LoadState import LoadState


class SurfaceCurrentState(LoadState):
    """The SurfaceCurrentState object stores the propagating data of a surface current in a
    step. One instance of this object is created internally by the SurfaceCurrent object for 
    each step. The instance is also deleted internally by the SurfaceCurrent object. 
    The SurfaceCurrentState object has no constructor or methods. 
    The SurfaceCurrentState object is derived from the LoadState object. 

    Attributes
    ----------
    magnitude: float
        A Float specifying the load magnitude.
    magnitudeState: SymbolicConstant
        A SymbolicConstant specifying the propagation state of the load magnitude. Possible
        values are UNSET, SET, UNCHANGED, and FREED.
    amplitudeState: SymbolicConstant
        A SymbolicConstant specifying the propagation state of the **amplitude** member. Possible
        values are UNSET, SET, UNCHANGED, and FREED.
    status: SymbolicConstant
        A SymbolicConstant specifying the propagation state of the :py:class:`~abaqus.Load.LoadState.LoadState` object. Possible
        values are:
            - NOT_YET_ACTIVE
            - CREATED
            - PROPAGATED
            - MODIFIED
            - DEACTIVATED
            - NO_LONGER_ACTIVE
            - TYPE_NOT_APPLICABLE
            - INSTANCE_NOT_APPLICABLE
            - BUILT_INTO_BASE_STATE
    amplitude: str
        A String specifying the name of the amplitude reference. The String is empty if the load
        has no amplitude reference.
