Description

This command defines a set of geometries (see e.g. GEOMETRY_BOX).

Example
Pressure load on a surface defined with a geometry set

The commands below define a pressure load on square plate. Geometry 1 marks all faces on the top surface of the plate. Geometry 2 is a box. Referring to -2 means that all faces inside the box are removed from the face list. Geometry 3 adds faces inside a cylinder and, finally, Geometry 4 removes faces inside a box.
