class activate_lean_datastructures(service, version, mode, path)#

Bases: TUIMethod

Activates Lean data structures to reduce memory.

class auto_mesh(service, version, mode, path)#

Bases: TUIMethod

Enables you to generate the volume mesh automatically. Specify a mesh object name for object-based auto mesh; if no name is given, face zone based auto mesh is performed. Specify the mesh elements to be used when prompted. Specify whether to merge the cells into a single zone or keep the cell zones separate. For face zone based meshing, specify whether automatically identify the domain to be meshed based on the topology information.

class auto_mesh_multiple_objects(service, version, mode, path)#

Bases: TUIMethod

Automatically executes initialization and refinement of mesh for multiple objects.

class auto_prefix_cell_zones(service, version, mode, path)#

Bases: TUIMethod

Enables you to specify a prefix for cell zones created during the auto mesh procedure. The auto-prefix-cell-zones command is not relevant for object-based meshing, where the cell zone names are generated based on the material points and the objects used to generate the mesh object.
