TopologyRibDesign(...)
This method creates a TopologyRibDesign object.
Path
mdb.models[name].optimizationTasks[name].TopologyRibDesign
Required arguments
- name
-
A String specifying the geometric restriction repository key.
- ribDirection
-
A VertexArray object of length 2 specifying the out-of-plane growth direction of the ribs. Instead of through a Vertex, each point can be specified through a tuple of coordinates.
- ribThickness
-
A Float specifying the average thickness of the ribs.
- ribDistance
-
A Float specifying the average distance between the rib centers. The distance must be larger than twice the average element edge length.
- region
-
A Region object specifying the region to which the geometric restriction is applied.
Optional arguments
- csys
-
None or a DatumCsys object specifying the local coordinate system of the pullDirection. If csys=None, the global coordinate system is used. When this member is queried, it returns an Int indicating the identifier of the DatumCsys. The default value is None.
- ribDesignCheckRegion
-
The SymbolicConstant RIBDESIGN_REGION or a Region object specifying the overhang check region. If the value is OVERHANG_REGION, the value of region is used as both the overhang control region and the overhang check region. The default value is RIBDESIGN_REGION.
Return value
A TopologyRibDesign object.
Exceptions
None.
