Description
Creates weld elements between surfaces using a line list to determine the weld points.
Inputs
- surf1_markmask
- First or multiple surfaces in the mark.
- surf2_markmask
- Second surface in the mark, if given.
- Tol
- Search tolerance to identify the surfaces.
- createplot
- Creates a plot.
- configval
- Element type configuration value.
- Syst
- Local coordinate system switch:
- 0 - Do not build systems.
- 1 - Build systems.
- Code
- Code for one or all surface options:
- 0 - All surfaces.
- 1 - One surface.
- num_nodes
- Number of nodes on the line (for Density option only).
- Linelist1
- The line list on the mark.
- Nodelist1
- The node list associated with the line list on the mark.
- biasstyle
- 1 - Linear.
- biasingintensity
- 0.0 - Equal spacing.
- Spacing
- Spacing between weld elements (= 0.00 for Density option).
- offset_type
- 0 - End offset.
- endoffset
- End offset from the edge (=value).
- Property
- Name of property collector. Used to retrieve the property.
