Challenge 5 : Concept Modeling of Car Bumper
- Title of the Project: Concept Modelling of Car Bumper of Fiat Abarth 500.
- Objective: To do the concept modelling of Fiat abarth 500’s bumpers using the blueprint by the help of auto desk alias
- Introduction: Autodesk alias can be used to create a detailed 3d model of the Car Bumper of Fiat Abarth 500 by using the certain tool in the software. By importing the image of car blueprint we can use it to create surfaces. We have to use our perspective to create detailed surfaces of the bumper.
- Design methodology / approach the whole approach of this project can be explained with this flow chart
- Stage 1: To make a 3d box with a dimension of 3657 X 1627 X 1485 as it will act as the dimension of the car from the blueprint given
- Stage 2: import the front back and the side view from the image. Use crop to crop out different views of the blueprint and by using image editor command decrease their visibility. Now scale and align all these images according to the box to fit all the views properly.
- Stage 3 : Now according to the view start creating the curve networks to make a 3d image. These curve networks will be used to create the surfaces.
- Stage 4: now align all these curve according to a particular view and follow that view to make accurate 3d model.
- Stage 5: now with the help of curves and tools like skin and square ror rail start making curves according to the image
- Stage 6: now focus on the continuity, the flow of surface is one of the most important expect of the design so the flow should be even and continuous .check the flow using diagnostic shaders.
- Stage 7: For the special are we have to use a speaical approach to follow to attain the destered structure , extend and intersect the surcafes isolate the surfaces to create it.
- Stage 8: trim the surfaces to make the model more realistic as possible
- Final stage: now focus on the detailing part like head lamps and back lamps to make it as realistic as possible. Also use fillets to make extra curves.

- Description : the whole structure of bumper can be created by using alias
There are several tools that were used in the making of the project. Tools like:
- Skin: skin tool that can be used to create surfaces from one curve or surface to other curves or surfaces.
- Rail: surface can be created by using generation curve and rail curve
- Project : a curve can be projected on the any surface that already exists.
- Trim:unwanted surfaces can be trimed from the surface to make whole
- Freeform blend: this can be used in special area where we want cure in a bend part like this, we can adjust the shape of the surface according to requirement
- Symmetry: this tool can be used symmetry the already created surfaces .this will help to create a pattern that can be duplicated further. Now by using the create geometry command in the symmetry option create a surface.
- Align : align the surfaces to conunity to make the surfaces make flow good
- filet: filet can be used to connect curves to make filets.
- Conclusion:the 3d design of fiat abarth 500 bumpers(frot and back were created using autodesk alias and its tool
