Polyhedral Geometry in Mechanical Systems Experience

A polyhedral geometry is a fixed tessellation of an exact geometry. You cannot reference a polyhedral geometry, but you can reference a product containing a polyhedral geometry. This topic lists the commands that cannot be used with polyhedral geometry.

Note: The commands using selected or referenced canonical geometries cannot be used with polyhedral geometry.

  • Position, Speed and Acceleration Probe : You cannot select geometry to define probes.
  • Force Law Excitation : You cannot reference polyhedral geometry to create excitations.
  • Torque Law Excitation : You cannot reference polyhedral geometry to create excitations.
  • Geometric Trace : You cannot create geometric traces using polyhedral geometry as geometry selection is not possible.
