Morph the given component and write a macro for the same using Hypermesh

Objective-Morph the given side body component to the desired shape as shown in the images above and write a Macro for the same.

Procedure-

Morphing

• Open hypermesh and import the .stp file.

• Firstly extract the surface out of FE using geom>surfaces>FE

• Now create morh volume for desired shape change using tool>hypermorph>morph volume>create

• Now split the morph volume from both the sides using tool>hypermorph>morph volume>split

• Now give the desired shape by moving the handles
• Arrows helps us in moving the handles.

• Below shown is the morphed model

Writing a macro

• Open the command.tcl file in notepad on which the morphing was performed
• Copy and save this file as a separate tcl file
• Whenever we are required to perform morphing we can do it using file>run>tcl/tk script
• Below given is the macro for side door morphing

Learning outcome

• Learned to perform morphing.
• Learned to run a macro file.

Results

• In this project morphing on a side door component was done and macro was written successfully.
