Ruled

Ruled

Ruled allows you to create a mesh of shells between 2 lines of nodes.

You can toggle the line of nodes that you are picking nodes for by pressing the Select button.

When the number of nodes on both ends is not equal - two options are present a) Free meshing b) Structured Meshing.

You can pick nodes by selecting "Normal screen pick" or Pick Edge Nodes or Pick using shortest path methods.

The Discrete selection allows you to pick nodes in discrete lines between two nodes, and automatically starts a new line to pick nodes from after each second node.

The Continuous selection allows you to pick nodes in a continuous line without separation.

Give either the number of rows of shells to create or the size of shell element size, in which case PRIMER will determine the number of rows of shells required.

The preview of the to be created mesh can be seen with the Preview Mesh button.
