Face: about

Faces

Faces can be built:

  • with the aid of automatic construction algorithm

    (automatic identification and creation)

  • by propagation from existing faces with the aid of a transformation
  • by extrusion from existing lines with the aid of a transformation

Faces built by Flux PEEC

The faces built by Flux PEEC are included in planar surfaces. The types of faces are presented in the table below:

Face of following type is built …
automatic

  • with the aid of automatic construction algorithm

    (command Build Faces )
structured

  • by extrusion from lines (command Extrude lines

    with building option Add Faces, Lines and Points)

  • within the extrusion from faces (command Extrude faces

    with building option Add Volumes, Faces, Lines and Points)

  • by propagation of faces (command Propagate faces

    with building option Add Faces, Lines and Points)

Structured faces

The building of a structured face is shown in the figure below.

  • side lines are connection elements
