Working with meshes

Use DPF mesh objects to inspect nodes, elements, and connectivity from the active Mechanical analysis.

Mechanical example

import mech_dpf
import Ans.DataProcessing as dpf

mech_dpf.setExtAPI(ExtAPI)
analysis = ExtAPI.DataModel.Project.Model.Analyses[0]

ds = dpf.DataSources()
ds.SetResultFilePath(analysis.ResultFileName)
model = dpf.Model(ds)

mesh = model.Mesh
print("Nodes: {0}".format(mesh.Nodes.Count))
print("Elements: {0}".format(mesh.Elements.Count))
