RETRIEVES THE NOMINAL DIMENSION FOR A GIVEN UNIAXIAL SPECIMEN¶
Looks up the nominal dimension for a specified uniaxial specimen type by querying the specimen dimensions registry. For the “area” dimension type, the nominal value is computed as gauge width × specimen thickness; for all other dimension types the stored tabular value is returned directly.

Inputs¶
| Label | ID | Type | Default | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Specimen Type | specimen_type | text | E8_shell_standard_p25mm | Identifier of the uniaxial specimen geometry to look up (e.g. ‘E8_shell_standard_p25mm’); must match an entry in the specimen dimensions registry exactly. | |
| Dimension Type | dimension_type | text | Guage Width | The dimension to retrieve from the specimen record (e.g. ‘Guage Width’, ‘Guage Length’); use ‘area’ to compute cross-sectional area as gauge width × specimen_thickness. | |
| Specimen Thickness | specimen_thickness | text | 1.0 | Sheet/coupon thickness in mm (default 1.0); only used when dimension_type is ‘area’ to compute the nominal cross-sectional area. |
Outputs¶
| Label | ID | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nominal Dimension | nominal_dimension | text | Scalar nominal dimension value (mm or mm² for area) corresponding to the requested dimension_type for the given specimen_type. |
