4.13.2. Legendre¶
- beamIntegration('Legendre', tag, secTag, N)
- beamIntegration('Legendre', tag, N, *secTags)
Gauss–Legendre integration: more accurate than Lobatto but no points at the element ends by default, so less common in force-based elements. Order of accuracy: \(2N-1\).
Prismatic:
beamIntegration('Legendre', tag, secTag, N).Non-prismatic:
beamIntegration('Legendre', tag, N, secTag1, …, secTagN).Arguments: see Lobatto.
Example
import openseespy.opensees as ops
ops.beamIntegration('Legendre', 2, 1, 6)
ops.beamIntegration('Legendre', 3, 4, 1, 2, 2, 1)
