Description
Creates a sphere with a specified center and radius, and optionally, prepares it for immediate use within the automesher. It can also identify a region in the shape of such a sphere for the automesher to use under the mesh without surface option.
Inputs
- center
- A node specifying the center of the sphere.
- radius
- The radius of the sphere.
Example
To create a sphere with center at node 1 and a radius of 45, but not create any elements on the sphere:
*surfacemode 4
*surfacespherefull 1 45.0
The *surfacemode(4) directive tells HyperMesh not to pass the information on to the automesher for element creation.
Errors
None.
