kmesh#

Mapdl.kmesh(np1='', np2='', ninc='', **kwargs)[source]#

Generates nodes and point elements at keypoints.

APDL Command: KMESH

Parameters:
np1, np2, ninc

Mesh keypoints from NP1 to NP2 (defaults to NP1) in steps of NINC (defaults to 1). If NP1 = ALL, NP2 and NINC are ignored and all selected keypoints [KSEL] are meshed. If NP1 = P, graphical picking is enabled and all remaining command fields are ignored (valid only in the GUI). A component name may also be substituted for NP1.

Notes

Missing nodes required for the generated elements are created and assigned the lowest available numbers.
