42.2.1.1. General Geometry

General Geometry is a function that changes the toolkit body to a rigid body. By using this function, the user can create the geometry required to create a passing body or clone body that can be used in RecurDyn/Linked Assembly.

42.2.1.1.1. Modeling Options

The user can create a general geometry as follows.

• Solid, Point

  • Solid: Inputs a solid geometry to be copied.

  • Point: Selects a point to define the position of general geometry.

• Solid, Direction, Angle, Point

  • Solid: Inputs a solid geometry to be copied.

  • Direction: Defines the direction for rotation of general geometry.

  • Angle: Defines the angle for rotation of general geometry.

  • Point: Selects a point to define the position of general geometry.

• Solid, MultiPoint

  • Solid: Inputs a solid geometry to be copied.

  • Point: Select some points to define the position of some general geometries.

• Body, Point

  • Body: Inputs a body to be copied.

  • Point: Selects a point to define the position of general geometry.

• Body, Direction, Angle, Point

  • Body: Inputs a body to be copied.

  • Direction: Defines the direction for rotation of general geometry.

  • Angle: Defines the angle for rotation of general geometry.

  • Point: Selects a point to define the position of general geometry.

• Body, MultiPoint

  • Body: Inputs a body to be copied.

  • Point: Select some points to define the position of some general geometries.
