*hmshrinkwrap
Used to shrink wrap mesh selected elements.
Syntax
*hmshrinkwrap entity_type entity_markId elems_markId wrap_type elem_size warpage_value
Type
HyperMesh Tcl Modify Command
Description
The shrink wrap function allows a complex FE model to be simplified quickly into an approximation of the original FE representation. The capability works by removing and blending out features of the original part to remove complexity.
Inputs
- entity_type
- Supported types are comps and elems.
- entity_markId
- Mark of input components or elements.
- elems_markId
- Mark of feature elements. Should be different from entity_markId. Considered for tight wrap only.
- wrap_type
- 1 = Loose wrap mesh.
- elem_size
- Element size for shrink wrap meshing.
- warpage_value
- Warpage value, above which the shrink wrap elements will be split. Enabled for tight wrap mesh only.
Example
To loose wrap displayed elements with an element size of
2:
*createmark elems 1 "displayed"
*createmark elems 2
*hmshrinkwrap elems 1 2 1 2 -1
Errors
Incorrect usage results in a Tcl error. To detect
errors, you can use the catch
command:
if { [ catch {command_name...} ] } {
# Handle error
}
