Add_Shape2Section

Purpose

add section shape geometry and material data to section data

Synopsis

SecData = Add_Shape2Section (SecData,Shape,CrdOr)

Description

ADD_SHAPE2SECTION add section shape geometry and material data to section data
  SECDATA = ADD_SHAPE2SECTION(SECDATA,SHAPE,CRDOR)
  the function adds information about the section shape in data structure SHAPE
  to the section description in data structure SECDATA;
  the optional argument CRDOR permits placement of the shape centroid
  at a specific location relative to the reference point of the section;
  CRDOR has the fields yc and zc for the centroid coordinates of the bar group in the
  y- and z-direction of the section coordinate system
  SHAPE has the following fields:
       .STYpe    = type of section shape
       .ShLoc    = shear center location
       .Outline  = y-z coordinates for shape outline description
       .MeshData = IP mesh information for SType with relevant scalar fields 
                   ny nz, ncl, nct, nfl, nft, nwl, nwt, niy, niz
       .FibAyz   = y-z coordinates and weights for fiber mesh discretization
       .FMatName = material type of shape
       .FMatData = material properties
       .FMatID   = material ID
