Description

Creates a new model by tuck-folding an existing one.

Syntax

tmodel = TUCK(

model, plan, line, el_size, gap_mini, tan_alpha

) ;

tmodel

 The name of the folded model.

model

 The name of the model object to be folded.

plan

 The mean plane of the model to be folded.

line

 The folding line.

el_size

 The minimum element size.

gap_mini

 The minimum gap between folded surfaces.

tan_alpha

 The maximum slope of inclined surfaces created around the fold line.

Comments
