This enum is referenced in the “Step” tree node and reflects the type of operation being configured. Based on the type of an operation different rules are applied which define the applicable list of controls and outcomes which can be added.
Declaration Syntax
public enum OperationType
Table 1117: Members
|
Member |
AddPrescribedPoints |
An operation which adds a set of prescribed points to an already existing volume mesh of the model. The prescribed points are added as nodes of the volume mesh and the volume mesh is smoothen around the prescribed nodes locations to preserve the mesh quality. |
|
Member |
CreateEnclosure |
An operation which creates an enclosure around a specified scope. Enclosures could be spherical, convex irregular, or user defined. |
|
Member |
CreateSurfaceMesh |
An operation which creates surface meshes according to the parameters given. |
|
Member |
CreateTopology |
An operation which converts a mesh-based part into a part with a topology representation. |
|
Member |
CreateVolumeMesh |
An operation which creates volume meshes according to the parameters given. |
|
Member |
CreateVolumetricSizeField |
An operation which creates a volumetric size field that can be used by the subsequent meshing operations. |
|
Member |
DeleteTopology |
An operation which deletes the topology from a set of parts with mesh and topology representation. |
|
Member |
DetectStackableBodies |
An operation to detect stackable and non-stackable bodies along a given input direction. |
|
Member |
ExportMesh |
An operation which exports the actual mesh data to a file. |
|
Member |
Extrude |
An operation which extrudes the specified surface mesh layer-by-layer in a specified direction and forms one or more new volume zones. |
|
Member |
FillHoles |
An operation which closes holes in surface meshes by creating patch surfaces. The inputs are the edge closed loops delimiting the holes. |
|
Member |
ImportMesh |
An operation which imports mesh data from a file. |
|
Member |
ImproveSurfaceMesh |
An operation which improves surface meshes according to the criteria given. |
|
Member |
ImproveVolumeMesh |
An operation which improves volume meshes according to the criteria given. |
|
Member |
ManageZoneProperties |
An operation which manages the zone properties of the model. After the transfer back to Mechanical, the zone properties are translated into the attributes of the corresponding bodies. |
|
Member |
MergeNodes |
An operation which merges nodes within tolerance, between the source and target input scope. |
|
Member |
MergeParts |
An operation to merge parts into a single part with the specified part name. |
|
Member |
MergeVolumes |
An operation which combines multiple volume zones into one. |
|
Member |
MultiZoneVolumeMesher |
An operation which creates a volume mesh using the MultiZone algorithm. |
|
Member |
PatchHoles |
An operation which closes holes in surface meshes by creating patch surfaces. The inputs are the Material Points to Include and to Exclude from the closed volume region. |
|
Member |
ReplicateMesh |
An operation to replicate meshed bodies in a part, based on offset coordinates from a .csv file. |
|
Member |
StackerDiagnostics |
An operation to find the smallest edge lengths along the lateral direction and the stacking direction, and the bounding box dimensions of the input bodies along the given stacking direction. |
|
Member |
StackerFlattenVolume |
An operation to flatten the input bodies on a plane, created at the given origin coordinates and along the given stacking direction. |
|
Member |
StackerMeshVolume |
An operation to create a volumetric mesh for the input bodies by stacking/extruding a meshed base face along the stacking direction. |
|
Member |
Wrap |
An operation which creates a closed surface around or inside a specified scope of the mesh, i.e., it allows to wrap regions of the mesh. |
