36.7 FixedRegion object

The FixedRegion object defines a fixed region geometric restriction.

The FixedRegion object is derived from the GeometricRestriction object.

Access
        import optimization
        mdb.models[name].optimizationTasks[name].geometricRestrictions[name]
      


36.7.1 FixedRegion(...)

This method creates a FixedRegion object.

Path
          mdb.models[name].optimizationTasks[name].FixedRegion
        

Required arguments

name

A String specifying the geometric restriction repository key.

region

A Region object specifying the region to which the geometric restriction is applied. When used with a TopologyTask, there is no default value. When used with a ShapeTask, the default value is MODEL.

Optional arguments

csys

None or a DatumCsys object specifying the local coordinate system. If csys=None, the global coordinate system is used. When this member is queried, it returns an Int. The default value is None.

presumeFeasibleRegionAtStart

A Boolean specifying whether to ignore the geometric restriction in the first design cycle. The default value is ON.

u1

A Boolean specifying whether to fix the region in the 1-direction. The default value is OFF.

u2

A Boolean specifying whether to fix the region in the 2-direction. The default value is OFF.

u3

A Boolean specifying whether to fix the region in the 3-direction. The default value is OFF.

Return value

A FixedRegion object.

Exceptions

None.


36.7.2 setValues(...)

This method modifies the FixedRegion object.

Required arguments

None.

Optional arguments

The optional arguments to setValues are the same as the arguments to the FixedRegion method, except for the name argument.

Return value

None

Exceptions

None.


36.7.3  Members

The FixedRegion object has members with the same names and descriptions as the arguments to the FixedRegion method.
