CopyDomain

Copy a domain mesh to copy meshes on domains using a rigid body transformation with a scale factor. Use the attributes EdgeMap, OnePointMap, TwoPointMap to control the orientation of the source mesh on the destination.

Syntax

model.component(<ctag>).mesh(<tag>).create(<ftag>,"CopyDomain");

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

model.component(<ctag>).mesh(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).create(<ftag1>,maptype);

Description

Use model.component(<ctag>).mesh(<tag>).create(<ftag>,"CopyDomain") to copy mesh between domains in a 2D or 3D geometry.

If you want to specify the orientation of the source mesh on the destination, use model.component(<ctag>).mesh(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).create(<ftag1>,maptype) to add an EdgeMap, OnePointMap, or TwoPointMap attribute feature.

The following properties are available:

Table 4-22: Available Properties for CopyDomain.
Property	Value	Default	Description
copymethod	auto \| singlecopy \| arraycopy	auto	Type of copy operation.
source	Selection	Empty	Source domains.
destination	Selection	Empty	Destination domains.
smoothcontrol	on \| off	on	Specifies if the operation smooths the mesh across removed control entities.
smoothmaxiter	integer	4	Specifies the number of smoothing iterations.
smoothmaxdepth	integer	4	Specifies the maximum element smoothing depth.

Use the properties source and destination to specify the source and destination boundaries. The copymethod property determines which type of copy is used: single copy (all-to-one), array copy (one-to-one), or automatic detection. The value auto lets the software choose between single copy (all-to-one), array copy (one-to-one), or a mixture of the two.

Example

Mesh block 1 and copy the mesh to block 2.

Code for Use with Java

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

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

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

MeshSequence m = model.component("comp1").mesh().create("mesh1", "geom1");

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

g.create("blk2", "Block");

g.feature("blk2").setIndex("pos", "2", 0);

g.run();

m.create("ftet1", "FreeTet");
