Use the External Surface tool to specify a fluid surface that interacts with a solid/structural surface from an external
code in order to solve Direct Coupling Fluid Structure Interaction (DC-FSI) problems.
Use the Interpolated tool to interpolate direct mesh
movement onto surrounding solids/surfaces and update the mesh accordingly.
All nodes falling within the
boundaries or solid bodies are interpolated to determine their weighted displacement
based on the distance from their surrounding "moving” surfaces.
From the Motion ribbon, click the Interpolated tool.
Select surfaces and/or solids.
Use the guide bar selectors to filter which entity type
you can select.
If the Include bounding surfaces option
is active, selecting a solid will automatically select all the corresponding
bounding surfaces.
From the guide bar, execute the command in the following
ways:
Click to confirm your selection and remain
in the tool.
This allows you to continue creating instances and helps you
visualize and edit instances with the legend.
Click to confirm your selection and exit the
tool.
