3.4.7. nodeCoord Command

This command returns the current coordinate at a specified node.

nodeCoord $nodeTag <$dim>

Argument	Type	Description
$nodeTag	integer	tag identifying node whose velocities are sought
$dim	integer	optional: specific crd dimension at the node (1 through ndm)

Note

If optional $ddim is not provided, an array containing all coordinate components is returned.

Example:

The following example is used to set the variable crdNode to the nodal coordinates for the node given by the variable nodeTag.

1. Tcl Code (note use of set and [ ])

set crdNode [nodeCoord $nodeTag]

2. Python Code

crdNode = nodeCoord(nodeTag)
