*hmmeshsurfacesphere
Within the automeshing module, generates quad or tria elements using a surfaceless algorithm. Can only be used with *surfacemode 3 and one of the *surfacesphere... commands.
Syntax
*hmmeshsurfacesphere quads
Type
HyperMesh Tcl Modify Command
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 *surfacesphere... commands.
Inputs
- quads
- If nonzero, specifies that the created elements should be quads.
Example
This example identifies a spherical region passing through the given four nodes, and, without actually building a surface, creates 150 elements with a density of 15 along a longitude and 10 around the equator:
