Please note: The created face is not considered in the simulation, but can be used to create other structures and to integrate fields on the face's surface.
Taper angle: 0°, Twist angle: 0° |
Taper angle: 5°, Twist angle: 20° |
Name
Specify the unique name for the face.
Thickness
Specify a valid expression for the thickness of the extrusion. A small arrow in the plot window indicates the direction of the extrusion. Negative thickness settings will result in an extrusion into the opposite direction.
Twist angle
Specify the angle to twist the created face around the direction of the extrusion.
Taper angle
Specify the angle to taper the created face along the direction of the extrusion. A negative angle will taper the shape, a positive angle will flare the shape.
OK
Press this button to finally create the face.
Preview
Press this button to create a preview image of the shape. This option is very useful to check the settings before you actually create the face.
