ParCurve2D, ParCurve3D

Create a 2D or 3D parameterized curve data set.

Syntax

model.result().dataset().create(<dtag>,"ParCurve2D");

model.result().dataset().create(<dtag>,"ParCurve3D");

model.result().dataset(<dtag>).set(property, <value>);

Description

model.result().dataset().create(<dtag>,"ParCurve2D") creates a 2D parameterized curve data set feature named <dtag>.

model.result().dataset().create(<dtag>,"ParCurve3D") creates a 3D parameterized curve data set feature named <dtag>.

Evaluation is made along an arbitrary parameterized curve in 2D or 3D.

The following properties are available:Add option for evaluating outside the mesh:

Table 7-58: Valid Property/Value Pairs for Parameterized Curve Data Sets

name	Value	Default	Description
name	String	none	The name of this feature
data	none | data set name	First compatible data set	The data set this feature refers to
global	boolean	false	If set to true, the data set only evaluates globally defined expressions
par1	String	t	The curve parameter
parmin1	double	0	The minimum value for par
parmax1	double	1	The maximum value for par
exprx	String	0	The expression for x(par)
expry	String	0	The expression for y(par)
exprz	String	0	The expression for z(par)
res	integer	1000	Resolution (number of discretization points along the curve)

The global property can be useful for BEM models, for example, to be able to evaluate globally defined expressions outside the mesh.
