| ALGORITHM = ClosestPoint | The only available option is ClosestPoint. Values are mapped to the nearest node, integration point, or element center. |
|
Search_Radius = SrcEleLen TarEleLen DOUBLE | Specifies the search radius for the mapping algorithm. By default, SrcEleLen is used, which sets the radius to the average element size of the source mesh. Alternatively, you can use TarEleLen to apply the average element size of the target mesh, or provide a positive DOUBLE value to define a custom radius. |
| Scale_SearchRadius = DOUBLE |
Coefficient to scale search radius. The default value is 1.0. |
| ETYP = INT |
1 - Reduced integrated solid elements. 2 - Fully integrated solid elements. |
|
MapStress = YES NO | Activate/deactivate stress mapping. |
|
MapStrain = YES NO | Activate/deactivate strain mapping. |
|
MapThickness = YES NO | Activate the generation of shell elements on top and bottom surfaces of the generated solid mesh. |
|
Thck_Avg_Opt = Ele Avg Nodal Avg |
Thickness averaging option. When using *ELEMENT SHELL THICKNESS, nodes may hold different thickness information, depending on the element to which they belong. This is especially critical for components with ribs. With the default setting (Ele Avg), the Envyo application calculates through-thickness integration points using the nodal thicknesses stored on the element nodes by interpolating the resulting thicknesses at the in-plane integration points via shape functions, allowing for the correct calculation of the local through-thickness integration points. By choosing the Nodal Avg option, the application first collects all thicknesses stored on one node from its attached elements and averages these thicknesses. Interpolation to the in-plane integration points using shape functions is then performed. |
|
LargeFile = YES NO | Activate/deactivate large file handling to reduce memory usage. |
| StartNodeID = INT | Starting node ID for the generated solid element nodes. |
| StartEleID = INT | Starting element ID for the generated solid elements. |
|
NumSolidLayers = INT fromInitialStress | The number of solid layers created during mesh generation. If NumSolidLayers=fromInitialStress, the number of generated solid layers is equal to the number of through-thickness IPs for the source mesh shell elements. |
| SourceMaterialModel = INT |
Number of the material model used for the generation of the *.dynain file. Only *MAT_USER_DEFINED_MATERIAL_MODELS (*MAT 41) is supported. |
|
VisualizeThickness = YES NO | When enabled, generated solid element thicknesses are stored as the last history variable for visualization purposes. |
| SORT = BUCKET | Using bucket sort is strongly recommended, as it provides a substantial performance improvement for the search algorithm. |
| REPEAT = YES | Enable this option to ensure that all elements and integration points receive mapped data. When there is a significant difference in element sizes between the source and target meshes, the default bucket refinement may be insufficient to cover all points, sometimes by design. In such cases, this flag must be set to guarantee complete data coverage. |
