Syntax

meshconfig(rfpcbobject,mode)
meshconfig(shape,mode)
m = meshconfig(___,mode)

Description

meshconfig(rfpcbobject,mode) changes the meshing mode of the PCB component according to the text input mode.

meshconfig(shape,mode) changes the meshing mode of the PCB shape according to the text input mode.

example

m = meshconfig(___,mode) returns the mesh structure after changing the meshing mode of the PCB component or shape according to the text input mode.

Create a curved bend shape of lengths of 10 m and 2 m, width of 2 m, and rotate it about the Z-axis by 60 degrees.

bend = bendCurved(Length=[10 2],Width=[2 2],CurveRadius=1)
bend = 
  bendCurved with properties:

              Name: 'myCurvedbend'
    ReferencePoint: [0 0]
            Length: [10 2]
             Width: [2 2]
       CurveRadius: 1


bend = rotateZ(bend,60);
show(bend)

Figure contains an axes object. The axes object with xlabel x (m), ylabel y (m) contains 2 objects of type patch. These objects represent PEC, myCurvedbend.

Mesh the curved bend shape at a maximum edge length of 1 m.

meshconfig(bend,"manual")
ans = struct with fields:
     NumTriangles: 0
    NumTetrahedra: 0
         NumBasis: []
    MaxEdgeLength: []
    MinEdgeLength: []
       GrowthRate: []
         MeshMode: 'manual'


mesh(bend,MaxEdgeLength=1)

Figure contains an axes object. The axes object with xlabel x (m), ylabel y (m) contains an object of type patch.
