map#
- Mapdl.map(kdim='', kout='', limit='', **kwargs)#
Maps pressures from source points to target surface elements.
APDL Command: MAP
- kdim
Interpolation key:
"0 or 2"
: Interpolation is done on a surface (default)."3"
: Interpolation is done within a volume. This option is useful if the supplied source data is volumetric field data rather than surface data.
- kout
Key to control how pressure is applied when a target node is outside of the source region:
"0"
: Use the pressure(s) of the nearest source point for target nodes outside of the region (default)."1"
: Set pressures outside of the region to zero.
- limit
Number of nearby points considered for interpolation. The minimum is 5; the default is 20. Lower values reduce processing time. However, some distorted or irregular meshes will require a higher
LIMIT
value to find the points encompassing the target node in order to define the region for interpolation.
