BND_plane
create a cutting plane
A cutting plane can be defined by the coordinates of a point on the plane (x0,y0,z0) and the direction of its normal (nx,ny,nz):
begin_boundary_elements{}
BND_plane &aliasDefinition& x0 y0 z0 nx ny nz
end_boundary_elements
begin_alias{}
"aliasDefinition" = " ... ACTIVE$...$ IDENT%...% MAT$...$ ... CHAMBER1 METAPLANE1 "
end_alias
Note: In the alias definition, the use of the METAPLANE flag is obligatory. These cutting planes can only be used for the following tasks:
- Define flat initial free surfaces, see example SimpleBox.
- Cut off points once they pass the plane, see %IDENT_cut%.
- Use as feeder or cutter, see example FeederCutter.
