FEMModalMeshPort

A FEM modal mesh port is used to apply a modal port boundary condition on the boundary of a finite element (FEM) region.

Example

application = cf.Application.GetInstance()
project = application:NewProject()

    -- Create a 'FEMModalMeshPort' spanning the points (0,0,0), (0,1,0) and (1,1,0)

femLineMeshPort = project.Contents.Ports:AddFEMModalMeshPortFromPoints(
cf.Point(0,0,0) ,cf.Point(0,1,0), cf.Point(1,1,0) )

Inheritance

The FEMModalMeshPort object is derived from the Port object.

Usage locations

The FEMModalMeshPort object can be accessed from the following locations:
