LowerDBlockFromSideset

This mesh modifier accepts a list of sidesets and creates a lower dimensional block of elements along those sides. The order of the newly create lower dimensional element block will match the order of the parent elements, e.g. first order for first order parents, second order for second order parents.

Adds lower dimensional elements on the specified sidesets.

Input Parameters

  • new_block_idThe lower dimensional block id to create

    C++ Type:unsigned short

    Description:The lower dimensional block id to create

  • sidesetsThe sidesets from which to create the new block

    C++ Type:std::vector

    Description:The sidesets from which to create the new block

Required Parameters

  • force_prepareFalseNormally all MeshModifiers run before the mesh is prepared for use. This flag can be set on an individual modifier to force preperation between modifiers where they might be needed.

    Default:False

    C++ Type:bool

    Description:Normally all MeshModifiers run before the mesh is prepared for use. This flag can be set on an individual modifier to force preperation between modifiers where they might be needed.

  • depends_onThe MeshModifiers that this modifier relies upon (i.e. must execute before this one)

    C++ Type:std::vector

    Description:The MeshModifiers that this modifier relies upon (i.e. must execute before this one)

  • new_block_nameThe lower dimensional block name to create (optional)

    C++ Type:SubdomainName

    Description:The lower dimensional block name to create (optional)

Optional Parameters

  • control_tagsAdds user-defined labels for accessing object parameters via control logic.

    C++ Type:std::vector

    Description:Adds user-defined labels for accessing object parameters via control logic.

  • enableTrueSet the enabled status of the MooseObject.

    Default:True

    C++ Type:bool

    Description:Set the enabled status of the MooseObject.
