DEFINE A PRODUCT AND ITS SPECIFICATIONS¶
Defines a product and its full geometric/structural specifications for downstream material characterization or CAE workflows. Supports uniaxial tensile specimens (with standard coupon types such as E8, A50, A80, ISO-Type3 and key dimensions) and automotive rail assemblies (with node, section, and part ID mappings). Use this worker at the start of a pipeline to lock in product type and associated parameters before extraction or calibration steps.
When to use¶
Classification: process.
Tagged: coupon, dimensions, geometry, keyvalue, mat_specimen, process, product_definition, rail.
Inputs¶
| Label | ID | Type | Default | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Choose Product Type | product_type | scalar | uniaxial | Dropdown selector for the top-level product category; choose ‘uniaxial’ for tensile coupon workflows or ‘rail’ for automotive rail assemblies — defaults to ‘uniaxial’ and drives which detail block is active downstream. | |
| Uniaxial Specimen | uniaxial_specimen | keyvalue | (complex) | Key-value block defining all uniaxial coupon parameters: specimen standard (E8/A50/A80/ISO-Type3), node labels (N1, N2), section force label, extensometer length (mm, default 50.0), specimen width (mm, default 12.4), and specimen thickness (mm, default 1.0) — leave at defaults for a standard E8 dog-bone coupon. | |
| Automotive Rail | automotive_rail | keyvalue | (complex) | Key-value block defining the automotive rail assembly identifiers: comma-separated node IDs, section IDs, and part IDs used to locate and extract responses from LS-DYNA results — populate these to match the keyword deck entity names. | |
| Automotive Sedan | automotive_sedan | keyvalue | (complex) |
Outputs¶
| Label | ID | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| product_definitions_output_1 | product_definitions_output_1 | keyvalue | Key-value record consolidating the resolved product type and its full specification parameters (dimensions, IDs, labels) for consumption by downstream extraction, characterization, or calibration workers. |
