exportAtEnd export file when the simulation is over and cleanup is called, i.e. just before deleting the simulation (default=false) 0
enable Enable or disable the component. (default=true) 1
format File format to use ALL
position points position (will use points from topology or mechanical state if this is empty)
edges write edge topology 1
triangles write triangle topology 1
quads write quad topology 1
tetras write tetra topology 1
hexas write hexa topology 1
