SideSetsFromBoundingBoxGenerator

Find sidesets with given boundary ids in bounding box and add new boundary id. This can be done by finding all required boundary and adding the new boundary id to those sidesets. Alternatively, a number of boundary ids can be provided and all nodes within the bounding box that have all the required boundary ids will have a newboundary id added.

Input Parameters

block_idSubdomain id to set for inside/outside the bounding box
C++ Type:unsigned short
Options:
Description:Subdomain id to set for inside/outside the bounding box
bottom_leftThe bottom left point (in x,y,z with spaces in-between).
C++ Type:libMesh::VectorValue
Options:
Description:The bottom left point (in x,y,z with spaces in-between).
boundary_id_newBoundary id on specified block within the bounding box to assign
C++ Type:short
Options:
Description:Boundary id on specified block within the bounding box to assign
boundary_id_oldBoundary id on specified block within the bounding box to select
C++ Type:std::vector
Options:
Description:Boundary id on specified block within the bounding box to select
inputThe mesh we want to modify
C++ Type:MeshGeneratorName
Options:
Description:The mesh we want to modify
top_rightThe bottom left point (in x,y,z with spaces in-between).
C++ Type:libMesh::VectorValue
Options:
Description:The bottom left point (in x,y,z with spaces in-between).

Required Parameters

boundary_id_overlapFalseSet to true if boundaries need to overlap on sideset to be detected.
Default:False
C++ Type:bool
Options:
Description:Set to true if boundaries need to overlap on sideset to be detected.
locationINSIDEControl of where the subdomain id is to be set
Default:INSIDE
C++ Type:MooseEnum
Options:INSIDE OUTSIDE
Description:Control of where the subdomain id is to be set

Optional Parameters

control_tagsAdds user-defined labels for accessing object parameters via control logic.
C++ Type:std::vector
Options:
Description:Adds user-defined labels for accessing object parameters via control logic.
enableTrueSet the enabled status of the MooseObject.
Default:True
C++ Type:bool
Options:
Description:Set the enabled status of the MooseObject.
