36.41 TopologyRotationalSymmetry object

The TopologyRotationalSymmetry object defines a topology rotational symmetry geometric restriction.

The TopologyRotationalSymmetry object is derived from the GeometricRestriction object.

36.41.1 TopologyRotationalSymmetry(...)

This method creates a TopologyRotationalSymmetry object.

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

Required arguments

name

A String specifying the geometric restriction repository key.

angle

A Float specifying the repeating segment size, an angle in degrees.

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

axis

A SymbolicConstant specifying the axis of symmetry. Possible values are AXIS_1, AXIS_2, and AXIS_3. The default value is AXIS_1.

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.

ignoreFrozenArea

A Boolean specifying whether to ignore frozen areas. The default value is OFF.

Return value

A TopologyRotationalSymmetry object.

Exceptions

None.


36.41.2 setValues(...)

This method modifies the TopologyRotationalSymmetry object.

Required arguments

None.

Optional arguments

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

Return value

None

Exceptions

None.


36.41.3  Members

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