Type

HyperMesh Tcl Modify Command

Description

This command sets the symmetry plane for the die module.

Inputs

normal_x

x-coordinate of the plane normal.

normal_y

y-coordinate of the plane normal.

normal_z

z-coordinate of the plane normal.

origin_x

x-coordinate of the plane origin.

origin_y

y-coordinate of the plane origin.

origin_z

z-coordinate of the plane origin.

shape_flag

A flag that identifies the following cases:

0 - Half model

1 - Full model that does not contain a symmetry plane

2 - Full model that contains a symmetry plane

3 - Symmetric model for double attached part feature

node_1

First node ID that identifies the portion of the part that is used by the double attached part feature.

node_2

Second node ID that identifies the portion of the part that is used by the double attached part feature.

Example

To set the symmetry plane z=0 for the die module:

*hf_setdiesymmetry 0. 0. 1. 0. 0. 0. 0 0 0
