Detailed Description

Represents a system to query information about FE-based elements

To obtain an instance of this class, refer to NXOpen.CAE.NodeElementManager

Created in NX11.0.0

Member Function Documentation

unsafe NXOpen.Point3d [] NXOpen.CAE.ElementInfoUtils.Ask2d3dElementCentroids ( NXOpen.CAE.FEElement[]  elements, NXOpen.CoordinateSystem  coordinateSystem  )

inline

Returns the centroids of 2D and 3d finite elements in absolute or reference coordinate system.

Use a tag of a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) for coordinateSystem to indicate the absolute coordinate system. It will fail if given wrong type of elements

Created in NX11.0.0

License requirements: nx_masterfem ("Finite Element Modeling")

Parameters

elements
