Challenge 4 : Concept Modelling of Alloy Wheel

PROJECT REPORT

TITLE: CONCEPT MODELING OF AN ALLOY WHEEL

OBJECTIVE

The main objective is to model an alloy wheel. A reference image is taken.

INTRODUCTION

A reference image of a car wheel is taken. Curves are drawn ith reference to this canvas.

DESIGN METHODOLOGY

The following flowchart shows a vague idea on how the concept modeling of alloywheel is done

DESCRIPTION

First of all we have to import the image of an alloy wheel as a reference. Then build the outer circle and then the inner one. Now use the skin command to make it into a surface. Now divide the surface to a shape which will be easy to mirror and duplicate. After that is done we can continue to make the curves accordingly with ep crv and blend.

After making the curves surface are made.

After making the surface we have to symmetry it.

After symmetrying it then we have to make it into a complete model. For that the object is duplicated to 5 numbers and rotated 60 deg in y direction.

CONCLUSION

Final alloywheel is obtained. Class A surface of the alloywheel and curve network for the same is also obtained.
