Model.solidmeshwithsurfaces

Model.solidmeshwithsurfaces(type, source, dest, along, genelems, elements, density, biasstyle, biasing)

Creates a mesh of solid elements by first extruding an existing 2D finite element mesh, and then mapping the extruded mesh into a volume.

Parameters:

• type (int) –

  Identifies which type of geometry is being supplied. Valid values are:

  0 - Source and destination

  1 - Source and along

  2 - Source, destination, and along

• source (Collection) – The collection containing the geometric data of the source face. Valid entities are nodes, lines and surfaces.

• dest (Collection) – The collection containing the geometric data of the destination face. Valid entities are nodes, lines and surfaces.

• along (EntityList) – The collection containing the geometric data of the along faces. Valid entities are lines and surfaces.

• genelems (int) – Currently not used.

• elements (Collection) – The collection containing the element entities which are to be mapped into the volume.

• density (int) – The number of elements to be created between the source and destination faces.

• biasstyle (int) – The type of biasing to use.

• biasing (double) – The biasing intensity value.
