BlockDeletionGenerator

Mesh generator which removes elements from the specified subdomains

Overview

The BlockDeletionGenerator is used to remove elements from a mesh matching a user provided subdomain ID. While most mesh generation operations should be based on geometric operations, it is sometimes easier to remove discretized elements for certain problems.

Input Parameters

  • inputThe mesh we want to modify

    C++ Type:MeshGeneratorName

    Options:

    Description:The mesh we want to modify

Required Parameters

  • blockThe list of blocks to be deleted

    Options:

    Description:The list of blocks to be deleted

  • new_boundaryoptional boundary name to assign to the cut surface

    C++ Type:BoundaryName

    Options:

    Description:optional boundary name to assign to the cut surface

  • show_infoFalseWhether or not to show mesh info after generating the mesh (bounding box, element types, sidesets, nodesets, subdomains, etc)

    Default:False

    C++ Type:bool

    Options:

    Description:Whether or not to show mesh info after generating the mesh (bounding box, element types, sidesets, nodesets, subdomains, etc)

Optional Parameters

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

    C++ Type:std::vector<std::string>
