FE geometry is topology on top of mesh, meaning CAD and mesh exist as a single entity. The purpose of FE geometry
is to add vertices, edges, surfaces, and solids on FE models which have no CAD geometry.
This realization creates rows of HEXA elements for the body. The HEXA elements project
and connect to the adjoining shell/solid elements by touching them.
Note: Uses the
default parameters, material thickness lookup table, and material strength lookup
table from the weld_config.ini config file to set the default
attributes for the created MATL100 material.
The adhesive - shell gap exists in exactly the same configuration with the following
additional names:
HC glue mastic sealer
HC glue spot sealer
HC glue glass adhesive
This is in order to keep the realization names from HyperCrash.
The realization uses the prop_dyna_matnum_seamarea.tcl post
script.
