The following list of attributes are required for the Astros AIM inside the geometry input.
- capsIntent This attribute is a CAPS requirement to indicate the analysis fidelity the geometry representation supports. Options are: ALL, STRUCTURE
- capsGroup This is a name assigned to any geometric body. This body could be a solid, surface, face, wire, edge or node. Recall that a string in ESP starts with a $. For example, attribute
capsGroup $Wing
.
- capsLoad This is a name assigned to any geometric body where a load is applied. This attribute was separated from the
capsGroup
attribute to allow the user to define a local area to apply a load on without adding multiple capsGroup
attributes. Recall that a string in ESP starts with a $. For example, attribute capsLoad $force
.
- capsConstraint This is a name assigned to any geometric body where a constraint/boundary condition is applied. This attribute was separated from the
capsGroup
attribute to allow the user to define a local area to apply a boundary condition without adding multiple capsGroup
attributes. Recall that a string in ESP starts with a $. For example, attribute capsConstraint $fixed
.
- capsIgnore It is possible that there is a geometric body that you do not want the Astros AIM to pay attention to when creating a finite element model. The capsIgnore attribute allows a body to be in the geometry and ignored by the AIM. Because of limitations in OpenCASCADE situation where two edges are overlapping may occur. This allows the user to only pay attention to on of the overlapping edges.
