Week 8

Aim

To practice the concept of morphing on the given model.

Procedure

Step -1 Study of the model:

• The model was sheet metal component.
• It had many features such as holes, slots and depressions.
• The thickness of the sheet was 1 mm.

Step -2: Standard geometry cleanup.

• The model had very little issues.
• Most of it was fixed automatically using the FIX option from the geometry checks manager.
• The rest of triple cons were removed manually.

Step-3: Establishing an Morphing box

• Morphing box is created as needed using 'NEW' from box tab.
• The box is split into smaller boxes as needed using spliit.

Step-4: Morphing

• The morphing is done n areas by moving nodes freely my using MOVE tab.
• Morphing is used to change the geometry slightly.

conclusion

Morphing is a concept used to chane the geometry as needed by the user. it gives a non paramteric approachfo shaping the geometry.
