OOF2: The Manual

Details

Description

When the method parameter for the Skeleton modifier Rationalize is set to SpecificRationalization, the specific tools listed by the rationalizers parameter will be used to reduce the number of poorly shaped Elements. Each Rationalizer will be applied to the Elements that meet the criteria determined by its arguments.

In scripts, rationalizers is a list of Rationalizer constructors, like this:

    OOF.Skeleton.Modify(
      skeleton='pi:skeleton',
      modifier=Rationalize(
         targets=AllElements(),
         criterion=AverageEnergy(alpha=0.3),
         method=SpecificRationalization(
            rationalizers=[QuadSplit(angle=150),
                           RemoveBadTriangle(acute_angle=15,obtuse_angle=150)]
            ),
        iterations=1))
  

In the GUI, after selecting Specified for the method parameter of the Rationalize Skeleton modifier, the widgets shown in Figure 6.110 will appear. The check marks select the particular Rationalizers to be used. The parameters for each Rationalizer are listed below its name.
