Week - 8 - Morphing

AIM:

To perform the morphing for model 2 given the assignment and increase the hight of the ribs and dog houses.

PROCEDURE:

1. Download the model and check given model is in the format of .step
2. Go for geometrical errors from geometry check tab. If any errors are present solve those errors.
3. we can directly go for the morphing page because no need to do the mid-surfacing and meshing.
4. Go MORPHING MODULE > BOXES > NEW > ORTHO > SELECT THE ENTITY NEED TO BE MODIFIED.
5. 
6. 
7. On confirmation, we can see morphing box around the selected entity.
8. 
9. To do change the direction of entity we have select the move option.
10. 
11. For that MORPHING MODULE > BOX MORPHING > MOVE.
12. Now we have to select the nodes of the box. It will change to yellow colour. Now press mouse middle button. We can drag that node to change its shape.
13. 
14. We can also split the box. To increase the morphing option.

APPLICATIONS:

1. Automobile industry

The potential application of morphing in a vehicle are numerous. They can used in most structures on the exterior panels, interior panels and even some subsystems. In automobile is used to alter the design of the parts or subsystem of vehicles according to our requirement. It is changing the model without any numerical dimension.

example:The seden car is changed to hatchback withnidea of morphing. The Powertrain and seating capacity remains the same , all that changes is the class of vehicle from sedan to hatchback

2. Aviation industry:

In this field morphing is used in the area of wings design mostly to increase the lift and reduce the stall. In aviation industry it is used in MIG 23 and the XB-70.

LEARNING OUTCOMES:

How to use some basis of the morphing and its application.

CONCLUSION:

Using this method or technique we can alter the design of any component. Its application is many in automobile industry and aviation industry. Actually, it involves many trails and error to come new design with morphing.
