Add multiple points as boundaries #21046

Hello everyone, I want to add multiple points (~1k) as boundaries. I get used to using the ExtraNodesetGenerator to create point boundaries. But it's a huge task for thousands point, Is there a similar way like ReporterPointSource for adding multiple points (~1k) as boundaries? Thanks a lot, |

Hello You're right that it's too much to do manually. Is there anything in common between those points ? Like they are nodes on faces with the same normal? Or they are between two separate subdomains? Or on the outside of known subdomains? Typically we use these geometric characteristics in the mesh generator system to generate sidesets. Nodesets can be obtained from sidesets with just a parameter to Mesh. Guillaume |

Hello, Guillaume, thanks for your responses. Yes. A thousand points set as boundaries are located at the 'Line block' (in red color). Their interval distance is 10m. They belong to the same block. Thanks for your help again,
