Constraint on free jet displacement : options

Ver: 0   DESCRIPTION The so-called "Global Displacement Model" allows the steady-state simulation of extrusion of profiles without kinematic constraints on the extrudate (like plane of symmetry, full slip conditions on given boundary sets, etc.). This model adds a force and a torque on (a part of) the free jet in order to avoid excessive global displacement.
As this additional force (or torque) is constant on each section,  so it has little influence on the prediction of the shape of the extrudate.   OPTIONS
 
-1 
 Upper level menu
The current parameters are accepted
1 
 Constraint on all the remeshing domain 
Forces and torque are actually applied on the whole remeshing domain
2 
 Constraint on a part of the remeshing domain 
Forces and torque are actually applied on only a part of remeshing domain
3 
  Forces applied on [starting coord ; +inf[
Along the extrusion direction (X, Y or Z), forces and torque are applied where the coordinate (X,Y or Z resp.) is equal or greater than the starting coordinate
4 
 Forces applied on ]-inf ; starting coord]
Along the extrusion direction (X, Y or Z), forces and torque are applied where the coordinate (X,Y or Z resp.) is equal or lower than the starting coordinate
5 
 Modify starting coordinate 
Specifies the 'starting coordinate' along the direction of extrusion
