36.15.1 PenetrationCheck(...)

This method creates a PenetrationCheck object.

Path

          mdb.models[name].optimizationTasks[name].PenetrationCheck

Required arguments

name

A String specifying the geometric restriction repository key.

penetrationCheckRegion

A Region object specifying the penetration check region.

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 argument

presumeFeasibleRegionAtStart

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

Return value

A PenetrationCheck object.

Exceptions

None.

36.15.2 setValues(...)

This method modifies the PenetrationCheck object.

Required arguments

None.

Optional arguments

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

Return value

None

Exceptions

None.
