The BeadPlanarSymmetry object defines a bead planar symmetry geometric restriction.
The BeadPlanarSymmetry object is derived from the GeometricRestriction object.
import optimization mdb.models[name].optimizationTasks[name].geometricRestrictions[name]
This method creates a BeadPlanarSymmetry object.
mdb.models[name].optimizationTasks[name].BeadPlanarSymmetry
Required arguments
A String specifying the geometric restriction repository key.
A Region object specifying the region to which the geometric restriction is applied.
Optional arguments
A SymbolicConstant specifying the axis of symmetry. Possible values are AXIS_1, AXIS_2, and AXIS_3. The default value is AXIS_1.
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.
Return value
A BeadPlanarSymmetry object.
Exceptions
This method modifies the BeadPlanarSymmetry object.
Required arguments
Optional arguments
The optional arguments to setValues are the same as the arguments to the BeadPlanarSymmetry method, except for the name argument.
Return value
Exceptions
The BeadPlanarSymmetry object has members with the same names and descriptions as the arguments to the BeadPlanarSymmetry method.
