PARSES A GIVEN CURVE AND RETURNS THE PARAMETERS¶
Parses a specified curve from an LS-DYNA input file and extracts its data points, returning them as a structured parameter dataset. Use this worker to programmatically retrieve curve values (e.g., load curves, material curves) for downstream processing or parameter passing in a workflow.
When to use¶
Tagged: curve, keyword, load_curve, lsdyna, parameters, parse.
Inputs¶
| Label | ID | Type | Default | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Input File | input_file | file | — | ✓ | An LS-DYNA keyword input file (.k, .key, or .dyn) containing one or more *DEFINE_CURVE entries to be parsed. |
| Curve ID | curve_id | text | — | ✓ | The integer or string ID matching the target *DEFINE_CURVE entry in the input file (e.g., ‘1’ or ‘101’); must match exactly as defined in the deck. |
Outputs¶
| Label | ID | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Curve Parameters | curve_parameters | dataset | A tabular dataset containing the abscissa/ordinate pairs extracted from the specified curve, suitable for direct use as workflow parameters or further data processing. |
