This function can be accessed by:

Parameters
----------
name
A String specifying the key of the repository.
elset
A Region object specifying the region containing the elements that will be activated
during the analysis.
deformation
A Boolean value specifying whether the elements that have not yet been activated will
follow the deformations of the active elements. Set *deformation*=ON when the
deformation of the active elements is excessive. The default value is OFF.
freeSurfaceType
A SymbolicConstant specifying the exposed areas of the element facets that are active
for convection or radiation boundary conditions to be applied. Possible values are NONE
and FACET. If *freeSurfaceType*=FACET, user subroutine UEPACTIVATIONFACET will be called
at the start of the increment for each element. If *freeSurfaceType*=NONE, all the
exposed areas of the element facets are considered. The default value is NONE.
Returns
-------
An ElementProgressiveActivation object.
Raises
------
AbaqusException: If the region does not contain only elements.
