Number of slices or iterations are convergence settings, and can be found in the Model > Settings dialog, under the Convergence tab. 
 A complete document of the results is available through the API in JSON format. All our existing sample scripts have a line near the bottom that reads &lsquo;result.fos&rsquo;. To retrieve the full information set, add a new line to print out &lsquo;result.model_info&rsquo;, or read it into a string. Python has a library for parsing JSON content, so you can also query specific information from this output. 
 This output is identical to the content found in the Reports > View Model Information menu item in the software. Here&rsquo;s a partial example, with strings you can use. So in your case, you can query &lsquo;Rotation Center&rsquo;. I don&rsquo;t see a radius, but the entry and exit point are provided, so you can calculate the radius from that distance.
