Model 2:-
Morphing


Key features of Morphing:-
- FE Morphing of 2D & 3D Mesh using various types of morphing techniques
- Numerous easy and effective ways of Control block creation
- Manual Control Block creation
- Auto Control Block creation
- Control Block using 2 planes
- Blocks using curves & sections and various other methods of block creation
- Free-Form (direct) Morphing for more control over the geometry
- Diverse Morphing options such as
- Free-Form & Control Block method
- Poly Cube Morphing
- Curve based Morphing
- Pattern Morphing
- Stretch Morphing
- One time execution of required changes can be easily carried out with the use of any one of the morphing methods
- Parameterization of required transformations can be saved and in turn, generate several designs
- Creation of numerous designs using DOE files
- Flexibility and full control over various parameters and thus reduced operational time in design generation
- Compatibility for interfacing a wide range of solvers and platforms with solver dependent template creation
- Optimization of joints (Welds/Rigids) within & between the morphing components
- Auto Re-mesh and Quality preservation can be done smartly alongside morphing
Benefits:
- Minimizes time in design modification by directly working at mesh level thus improving the overall lead time
- Automatic control block creation methods require less skill and effort, avoiding high expertise, leading to time reduction in development and design
- Fast and efficient design creations using parameterized optimization
- Easy morphing of CAE models from parent design to a new concept or to match design specifications for two components derived from different parent designs
- Creation of ‘n’ number of parameters for different designs, enabling easy trial and error method of design correction
Conclusion and Learning:-
- Learn the basic user interface of Morphing in ANSA
- Learn the basic concept of FEa and CADgeometry shape changes.
- Learn the use of morphing and its basic industrial uses in car design and etc.
