zone.create.interface.elem
Syntax
- i := zone.create.interface.elem(z,iside,sname)
Note
- In the description below, the following correspondence is assumed between 3D and 2D analysis:
There is no 2D equivalence for 3D zone edges
3D zone faces (surfaces) <-> 2D zone edges (lines)
Create new interface elements attached to a zone face.
In FLAC2D, a single (line) element is created on the face (edge).
In FLAC3D, two triangular elements are created on a quadrilateral face.
- Returns:
i - the number of elements created. Will return 0 if an element already exists on that face.
- Arguments:
z - the zone on which the interface will be created
iside - the side of the zone on which the interface will be created
sname - the name of the interface to which the element will be added. If that interface does not exist, one will be created.
