Model.getunmeshedsurfstomark2

Model.getunmeshedsurfstomark2(collection)

Places displayed, unmeshed surfaces on the specified mark. This takes the surfaces found using Model.hm_getunmeshedsurfstomark() and performs advanced processing to better detect unmeshed surfaces.

BatchMesher can move nodes off of surfaces or surface edges, thus causing small surfaces to be considered unmeshed by Model.getunmeshedsurfstomark(). This function also does advanced filtering to find nodes/elements close to these small surfaces and thus not detect them as unmeshed.

Parameters:

collection (Collection) – The collection containing the unmeshed surface entities on output of Model.hm_getunmeshedsurfstomark().

Example

Find all unmeshed surfaces from the output of` Model.hm_getunmeshedsurfstomark`

import hm
import hm.entities as ent

model = hm.Model()

"""

Supposing we are having a model with surface entities,
after we have found the unmeshed surface entities
with model.hm_getunmeshedsurfstomark(), we use this
collection to find with a more advanced method
the unmeshed surfaces, using the model.getunmeshedsurfstomark2().

"""

surface_collection = hm.Collection(model, ent.Surface)
out_unmeshed_surf = hm.Collection(model, ent.Surface, populate=False)

# From all surfaces find the unmeshed ones
model.hm_getunmeshedsurfstomark(
    inputSurfCollection=hm.Collection(model, ent.Surface),
    outputSurfCollection=out_unmeshed_surf,
)

# Finding unmeshed surfaces from the unmeshed ones of previous function,
# using more advanced logic
model.getunmeshedsurfstomark2(collection=out_unmeshed_surf)
