The “NastranDb” class stores a model and results corresponds to Nastran finite element solver. It corresponds to “INastranDb” interface that derives from the “IDataBase” interface described in section VI.2.2. Methods specific to the COM component are:
The “makeCopy” method that returns a copy of the dataBase.
Several iterator methods with or without argument: “iter_coordSysId”, “iter_elemId”, “iter_nodeId”, “iter_rbeId”, “iter_materialId”, “iter_propertyId”, “iter_nodeOfElement”, “iter_cornerNodeOfElement”. When these iterators have arguments, they are implemented with methods and not with properties.
The reader is referred to Chapter III.1 for the description of the other methods.
