SMS:Generic Model Coverage
Generic 2D mesh coverage
Generic mesh coverage is for a Generic mesh model. The generic model interface spans both the map and the mesh modules. You can create a Generic Model coverage and assign arc boundary conditions based on the types defined in the generic model template. You can also assign attributes to feature points. More information about a meshing coverage can be found under the article Coverages.
Convert Map feature arc and point attributes (Generic 2D mesh coverage) to mesh nodestring and node attributes
Users in the map module with a Generic 2D mesh coverage can create feature points and arcs. These points and arcs can then be assigned attributes. This is done by double clicking on either the feature point or feature arc. For points a dialog will appear allowing you to assign node or element boundary conditions. For arcs you will be assign attributes on the arc. When doing a Map→2D Mesh, point node boundary conditions will be assigned to the nearest node. Point element conditions will be assigned to the nearest element. Mesh nodestrings will be created and assigned from the nodes nearest the feature arc.
Convert a Map to 2D Mesh
To convert a map to a mesh, right click on the map default or active coverage. Then select "Convert" then "Map->2D Mesh". A dialog is displayed. If a mesh already exists, you may choose to delete it, or map the attributes to the existing mesh.
