Parameters
----------
name
A String specifying the repository key.
region
A Region object specifying the region to which the predefined field is applied.
velocity1
A Float specifying the first component of the velocity.
velocity2
A Float specifying the second component of the velocity.
velocity3
A Float specifying the third component of the velocity.
omega
A Float specifying the angular velocity.
axisBegin
A sequence of Floats specifying the *X-*, *Y-*, and *Z*- coordinates of the starting
point of the axis about which *omega* is defined.
axisEnd
A sequence of Floats specifying the *X-*, *Y-*, and *Z*- coordinates of the end point of
the axis about which *omega* is defined.
field
A String specifying the name of the AnalyticalField object associated with this
predefined field. The *field* argument applies only when
*distributionType*=FIELD_ANALYTICAL. The default value is an empty string.
distributionType
A SymbolicConstant specifying whether the load is uniform. Possible values are MAGNITUDE
and FIELD_ANALYTICAL. The default value is MAGNITUDE.
Returns
-------
A Velocity object.
