Model.AE_AttachmentAbsorb

Model.AE_AttachmentAbsorb(entity_type, integer_array, option, config)

Absorb FE into attachments.

Parameters:

• entity_type (EntityFullType) – The entity type to absorb. Valid entity types are nodes and elements.

• integer_array (hwIntList) – The list of integers, which contains the IDs of the entities to absorb. If the array is empty, all rigidlink, RBE2 and RBE3 elements are considered.

• option (int) –

  A flag to specify if the absorption logic should consider selected entities or all elements:

  0- Consider specific

  1 - Consider all rigidlink, RBE2 and RBE3 elements

• config (unsigned int) –

  The config for the attachment:

  1 - Rigid spider

  2 - Rigid patch

Examples

Absorb an attachment from elements with IDs 116 and 227 (RBE2 types)

import hm
import hm.entities as ent

model = hm.Model()

elementIDs_list = [116, 227]

model.AE_AttachmentAbsorb(
    entity_type=ent.Element, integer_array=elementIDs_list, option=0, config=1
)

Absorb an attachment from all the rigidlink, RBE2 and RBE3 elements

import hm
import hm.entities as ent

model = hm.Model()

elementIDs_list = [116, 227]

model.AE_AttachmentAbsorb(
    entity_type=ent.Element, integer_array=hm.hwIntList([]), option=1, config=1
)
