Class MeshQuery

Class for querying the FEA mesh in an UnstructGridModel.

You can use this class to both interrogate a mesh in its local coordinates and to query a state in the model. If a state is specified the returned data will be in global coordinates, taking any displacement and transformation result into account.

Methods

Constructors

constructor

  • Create the query object.

    If a mesh is specified, the query will be based on the mesh elements and nodes. The coordinate system of the returned data will be in mesh local coordinates.

    If a state and part index is specified, the results (displacement and transformations) will be applied if in use. So, in this case the coordinate system of the returned data will be in global coordinates.

    Parameters

    Returns MeshQuery

  • Create the query object.

    If a mesh is specified, the query will be based on the mesh elements and nodes. The coordinate system of the returned data will be in mesh local coordinates.

    If a state and part index is specified, the results (displacement and transformations) will be applied if in use. So, in this case the coordinate system of the returned data will be in global coordinates.

    Parameters

    • state: State
    • partIndex: number

    Returns MeshQuery

Methods

getElementCentroid

  • getElementCentroid(elementIndex: number): Vec3

  • Returns the centroid of the given element

    If a mesh is specified in the constructor, the coordinate system of the returned data will be in mesh local coordinates. If a state and part index is specified in the constructor, the coordinate system of the returned data will be in global coordinates.

    Parameters

    • elementIndex: number

    Returns Vec3

getElementNodeIndices

  • getElementNodeIndices(elementIndex: number): ArrayLike<number>

  • Returns an array containing the node indices for each element node in the given element

    Parameters

    • elementIndex: number

    Returns ArrayLike<number>

getElementSurfaceNormal

  • getElementSurfaceNormal(elementIndex: number): Vec3

  • Returns the surface normal of the given element

    If a mesh is specified in the constructor, the coordinate system of the returned data will be in mesh local coordinates. If a state and part index is specified in the constructor, the coordinate system of the returned data will be in global coordinates.

    Parameters

    • elementIndex: number

    Returns Vec3

getNodePosition

  • getNodePosition(nodeIndex: number): Vec3

  • Returns the position of the given node in the given part in this state.

    If a mesh is specified in the constructor, the coordinate system of the returned data will be in mesh local coordinates. If a state and part index is specified in the constructor, the coordinate system of the returned data will be in global coordinates.

    Parameters

    • nodeIndex: number

    Returns Vec3
