| Destination Folder | |
|---|---|
| Simulation Object Container | Specifies the folder in the Simulation Navigator in which the boundary condition will be stored. The list includes the root container and existing folders that you created using the New Folder command. Examples of a root container include Load Container, Constraint Container, and Simulation Object Container. |
| Folder Manager | Displays a hierarchical listing of existing folders. To create a new folder, right-click any level of the hierarchy and choose New Folder. |
| Source Region | |
| Edge Region | Lets you specify the region that defines the contacting edge in the glued pair. Select an existing region, or click Create Region to create a new region.For more information, see Working with reusable regions. |
| Target Region | |
| Surface Region | Lets you specify the region that defines the contacted surface in the glued pair. Select an existing region, or click Create Region to create a new region.For more information, see Working with reusable regions. |
| Linear Settings | |
| Search Distance (BGSET) | Defines the search distance value for glued regions. For more information about defining the distance with a constant value, expression, or field, see Additional magnitude options.For more information, see BGSET. |
| Override Parameters (BGPARM) | Defines the modeling object that contains parameters for the glue algorithm.For more information, see BGPARM. |
| Create Modeling Object | Lets you assign a Glue Parameters — Linear Pair Override modeling object to the glue definition. This modeling object lets you define parameters for the glue algorithm.For more information, see BGPARM. |
| These options are available when you click More Options . | |
|---|---|
| Find | Lets you search for an object by entering the full name of the object. For example, to find a group named ABC_group, you must type ABC_group into the search box.After typing the name, press Enter or click Find . If the object is found, it will be selected automatically. |
