I.4.4.7 “deriveTensorToTwoScals” method

“deriveTensorToTwoScals” method returns an Array of two Result objects derived from the tensorial Result object on which the method is applied. The returned Results are scalar. Possible values of the “Method” String argument are:

• “Principals2D”: returns the principal values of a tensorial Result assuming that the tensor is a 2D tensor (all components $T_{iZ}=T_{Zj}=0$). The first Result contains minimum principal values, and the second Result contains maximum principal Values.
• “PrincipalsMinMax”: returns the minimum and maximum principal values of a tensorial Result. The first Result contains minimum principal values, and the second Result contains maximum principal Values.

This method works for Real Results only.
