*hmmeshsurfacecone

Within the automeshing module, generates quad or tria elements using a surfaceless algorithm. Can only be used with *surfacemode 3 and one of the *surfacecone... commands.

Syntax

*hmmeshsurfacecone quads

Type

HyperMesh Tcl Modify

Description

Within the automeshing module, generates quad or tria elements using a surfaceless algorithm. Can only be used with *surfacemode 3 and one of the *surfacecone... commands.

Inputs

quads: If nonzero, specifies that the created elements should be quads.

Example

This example identifies a cylindrical region of radius 100 and height 200, and then has the automesher create 300 elements on it, with a density of 10 up the side and 30 around the circumference:
