Use model.component(<ctag>).mesh(<tag>).create(<ftag>,"Sweep") to create a swept mesh in 3D.
Use model.component(<ctag>).mesh(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).selection() to specify the domain selection. If you do not specify any selection the feature creates a mesh on the remaining domains.
Use model.component(<ctag>).mesh(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).selection() to specify the 3D domain selection. If you do not specify any selection the feature creates a mesh on the remaining domains.
Use the property sourceface and
targetface to specify the source faces and the destination faces of the sweep, respectively. For domains in the feature selection where none of the surrounding faces are specified as either a source or a destination face, the software automatically tries to determine these faces.
Use the property sweeppath if you want to specify the shape of the sweep path. The string is either
auto,
straight,
circular, or
general.
straight means that all interior mesh points are located on straight lines between the corresponding source and destination points.
circular means that all interior mesh points are located on circular arcs between the corresponding source and destination points.
general means that the positions of the interior mesh points are determined by a general interpolation procedure.
auto, which is default, means that the sweeping algorithm automatically tries to determine if the sweep path is straight or circular. If this is the case
sweeppath is set to
straight or
circular, respectively. Otherwise,
sweeppath is set to
general.
Use the property targetmesh if you want to specify the method to be used for transferring the source mesh to the destination. See
Swept for more information about the values and examples where they would be used.
If a Distribution feature is defined on a domain, it is used to determine the distribution of element layer in the sweep direction. Otherwise, equidistant element layers are generated.
