Description
Checks the quality of 1D elements (welds) created by realizing connector entity (CE). It places all failed connectors on an output mark and highlights them.
Inputs
- ce_inmark
- Mark of displayed connectors.
- entities
- Only quality checks for Elements are now supported.
- outputmark
- All connectors that contain FE (welds) that failed quality check criteria are placed on this mark. Mark contains only connectors.
- free1d
- Check if any connectors realized welds that are not connected to the mesh.
- length_flag
- Check if the length of FE (welds) exceeds a certain value specified by the length parameter.
- length
- The value of the length of the weld that should not be exceeded. Used in conjunction with length_flag.
- angle_flag
- Check if the angle between the FE (welds) and the shell element normal exceeds the values pecified by the angle parameter.
- angle
- The orientation that the weld should not exceed with respect to the shell normal. A proper weld is oriented along the shell normal. Used in conjunction with angle_flag.
