surface_mesh#
- Mesh.surface_mesh(min_size=None, max_size=None, generate_quads=False, scope=<ansys.meshing.prime.lucid.scope.SurfaceScope object>)#
Generate a surface mesh on a scope.
This method is used to generate a surface mesh of a constant or variable size. It supports generating quad dominant or triangular elements.
If minimum and maximum sizes are provided, a variable size mesh is generated between the minimum size and maximum size by applying sizes based on curvature.
If only the minimum size or maximum size is provided, a constant size mesh is generated with the provided size.
If neither minimum size or maximum size is provided, the global maximum setting is used to generate a constant size mesh.
- Parameters:
- min_size
float
,optional
Minimum edge length of the mesh. The default is
None
.- max_size
float
,optional
Maximum edge length of the mesh. The default is
None
.- generate_quadsbool,
optional
Whether to generate a quad dominant mesh. The default is
False
, in which case a triangular mesh is generated.- scope
SurfaceScope
Scope for generating the surface mesh.
