Plot Cross-Section with Beam Properties#

Problem Description#

This example demonstrates how to visualize a VABS cross-section geometry with beam properties overlay using SGIO.

File List#

plot_cs.py: Main Python script
sg21eb_tri3_vabs40.sg: VABS cross-section input file
sg21eb_tri3_vabs40.sg.K: VABS beam properties output

How to Run#

cd examples/plot_cs
python plot_cs.py

Expected Outcome#

The script displays a matplotlib window showing the cross-section geometry with:

The mesh visualization
Neutral axis
Shear center
Principal axes
