2 Parameter Unit Cell, Cell Map, Scalar Field, Scalar Field
About this Block
What it does: The base block for creating all periodic lattices. It combines all of the building blocks to construct a lattice: the Unit Cell, the Cell Map, and the Unit Cell’s parameters. Common uses:- Base block for all periodic lattices.
- This block has three overloads: No Parameter, 1 Parameter, and 2 Parameters.
- The overload and parameter names automatically update to match the Unit Cell’s parameters.
- Open up the block’s Properties Panel to view the beam, implicit, and thick graph properties.
- These properties are populated based on the type of Unit Cell you use. An error sign with a tooltip appears next to the property if it is empty.

1 Parameter Unit Cell, Cell Map, Scalar Field
Generates a Lattice by tessellating a Unit Cell through a Cell Map.Inputs
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Unit cell | 1 Parameter Unit Cell | Unit cell to tessellate. |
| Cell map | Cell Map | Cell map for unit cell placement. |
| Unit cell parameter 1 | Scalar Field | The value of the first parameter of the unit cell. This input is a dependent input, meaning that the value you provide, such as thickness, will depend on the selected unit cell. Each unit cell’s documentation lists the specific parameter(s) associated with that cell. |
