OFF.

Parameters
----------
name
A String specifying the constraint repository key.
refPointRegion
A Region object specifying the reference point.
bodyRegion
None or a Region object specifying the elements constrained to the movement of the
reference point. The default value is None.
tieRegion
None or a Region object specifying the nodes tied to the movement of the reference
point. The default value is None.
pinRegion
None or a Region object specifying the nodes pinned to the movement of the reference
point. The default value is None.
surfaceRegion
None or a Region object specifying the analytic surface constrained to the movement of
the reference point. The default value is None.
refPointAtCOM
A Boolean specifying whether the analysis product should recompute the reference point
position to be at the center of mass. The default value is OFF.
isothermal
A Boolean specifying whether the temperature degree of freedom should be constrained.
The default value is OFF.
Returns
-------
A RigidBody object.
