- Mapdl.nsle(type_='', nodetype='', num='', **kwargs)#
Selects those nodes attached to the selected elements.
Mechanical APDL Command: NSLE
- Parameters:
- type_
str
Label identifying the type of node select:
S
- Select a new set (default).R
- Reselect a set from the current set.A
- Additionally select a set and extend the current set.U
- Unselect a set from the current set.
- nodetype
str
Label identifying type of nodes to consider when selecting:
ALL
- Select all nodes of the selected elements (default).ACTIVE
- Select only the active nodes. An active node is a node that contributes DOFs to the model.INACTIVE
- Select only inactive nodes (such as orientation or radiation).CORNER
- Select only corner nodes.MID
- Select only midside nodes.POS
- Select nodes in position Num.FACE
- Select nodes on face Num.
- num
str
Position or face number for NodeType = POS or FACE.

Notes
nsle selects
NodeType
nodes attached to the currently-selected set of elements. Only nodes on elements in the currently-selected element set can be selected.When using degenerate hexahedral elements, nsle,
U
,CORNER
and nsle,S
,MID
will not select the same set of nodes because some nodes appear as both corner and midside nodes.This command is valid in any processor.
