COMSOL 6.2 - IgnoreFaces

Ignore faces by removing the selected faces that are isolated or that are between two domains.

model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).create(<ftag>,"IgnoreFaces");

model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).selection(property);

model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).set(property,<value>);

model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).getType(property);

Use model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).create(<ftag>,"IgnoreFaces") to ignore faces in 3D.

Use model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).selection("input") to select the faces to ignore. The default selection is empty.

The feature removes the selected faces that are isolated or that are between two domains. In the latter case, the operation forms a composite domain. The output object is a virtual geometry.

The following properties are available:

Table 3-92: Valid Properties.
Name	Value	Default	Description
input	Selection		Faces to ignore.
ignoreadj	on \| off	on	Ignore edges and vertices on boundary.
keepformesh	on \| off	off	Keep faces for mesh control.

Use ignoreadj to specify if the feature also removes the ignorable edges and vertices on the boundary of each resulting composite domain.

Use keepformesh to keep the ignored faces while meshing, to help you in constructing the mesh.

Ignore faces to form one composite domain. The operation also creates composite faces and composite edges.

Code for Use with Java

Model model = ModelUtil.create("Model");

model.component().create("comp1");

GeomSequence g = model.component("comp1").geom().create("geom1", 3);

g.create("blk1", "Block");

g.create("cyl1", "Cylinder");

g.create("igf1", "IgnoreFaces");

g.feature("igf1").selection("input").set("fin", 6, 7, 10);

Code for Use with MATLAB

model = ModelUtil.create('Model');

model.component().create('comp1');

g = model.component('comp1').geom.create('geom1', 3);

g.create('blk1', 'Block');

g.create('cyl1', 'Cylinder');

g.create('igf1', 'IgnoreFaces');

g.feature('igf1').selection('input').set('fin', [6, 7, 10]);
