Model.linear1delements_byprojections#

Model.linear1delements_byprojections(collection1, collection2, config, type, density)#

Creates 1D elements between selected elements.

Parameters:

  • collection1 (Collection) – The collection containing the element entities defining the first boundary.

  • collection2 (Collection) – The collection containing the element entities defining the second boundary.

  • config (int) – The configuration of the 1D elements.

  • type (int) – The type of the 1D elements.

  • density (int) – The number of 1D elements created between the elements on collection1 and collection2.

Example#

Create four 1D elements between elements with IDs 5 , 6 , 7 and elements with IDs 10 , 23 , 34 , with configuration 61 and type 2 and use element normal as the projection direction#
import hm
import hm.entities as ent

model = hm.Model()

model.linear1delements_byprojections(
    collection1=hm.Collection(model, ent.Element, [5, 6, 7]),
    collection2=hm.Collection(model, ent.Element, [10, 23, 24]),
    config=61,
    type=2,
    density=4,
