Maxwell3d.assign_resistive_sheet(assignment, resistance='1ohm', name=None, non_linear=False, anode_a='300000000', anode_b='5', anode_c='110000000000000', anode_d='2', cathode_a='300000000', cathode_b='10', cathode_c='110000000000000', cathode_d='2')#

Assign a resistive sheet boundary between two conductors.

Available for Maxwell 3D Magnetostatic, Eddy Current and Transient designs. For 3D Magnetostatic designs, the user can specify the nonlinear anode and cathode coefficients. To understand the nonlinear relationship used by AEDT between the conductivity and current density, please refer to Maxwell Help guide.

Parameters:

assignmentlist of int or ansys.aedt.core.modeler.cad.object_3d.Object3d: List of objects to assign an end connection to.
resistancestr, optional: Resistance value with unit. For 3D Magnetostatic designs if non_linear is True, it is not available. The default is 1ohm.
namestr, optional: Name of the boundary. The default is None, in which case the default name is used.
non_linear: bool, optional: Whether the boundary is non-linear. The default is False. Valid for 3D Magnetostatic designs only.
anode_astr, optional: Anode a value that corresponds to the a coefficient in the non-linear relationship between conductivity and current density. The default value is "300000000".
anode_bstr, optional: Anode b value that corresponds to the b coefficient in the non-linear relationship between conductivity and current density. The default value is "10".
anode_cstr, optional: Anode c value that corresponds to the c coefficient in the non-linear relationship between conductivity and current density. The default value is "110000000000000".
anode_dstr, optional: Anode d value that corresponds to the d coefficient in the non-linear relationship between conductivity and current density. The default value is "2".
cathode_astr, optional: Cathode a value that corresponds to the a coefficient in the non-linear relationship between conductivity and current density. The default value is "300000000".
cathode_bstr, optional: Cathode b value that corresponds to the b coefficient in the non-linear relationship between conductivity and current density. The default value is "10".
cathode_cstr, optional: Cathode c value that corresponds to the c coefficient in the non-linear relationship between conductivity and current density. The default value is "110000000000000".
cathode_dstr, optional: Cathode d value that corresponds to the d coefficient in the non-linear relationship between conductivity and current density. The default value is "2".

Returns:

ansys.aedt.core.modules.boundary.common.BoundaryObject: Newly created object. False if it fails.
