*surfaceaddnodesfixed

Adds meshing fixed points to a mark of surfaces, either by breaking edges or adding interior fixed points. The coordinates of the fixed points are supplied by a list of nodes.

Syntax

*surfaceaddnodesfixed surfacemark nodelist tolerance createplot

Type

HyperMesh Tcl Modify

Description

Adds meshing fixed points to a mark of surfaces, either by breaking edges or adding interior fixed points. The coordinates of the fixed points are supplied by a list of nodes.

Inputs

surfacemark
The ID of the mark containing the surface to modify.
nodelist
The ID of the list containing the nodes to use.
tolerance
The closeness tolerance used to decide which points belong to a surface. A point can be added to more than one surface out of the mark.
createplot
Defines whether or not a plot element will be created between two points. It will be in the ^welds component.
0 - do not create a weld element
nonzero - create a weld element

Example

To add a point to surface 190 whose coordinates correspond to those of node 9:

*createmark(surfaces,1) 190
*createlist(nodes,2) 9
*surfaceaddnodesfixed(1,2,0.05,1)

Errors

None.
