Power Surfacing is designed for industrial design, product design, automotive design, jewelry design, and other applications that require complex freeform surfaces. It aims to simplify the design process and reduce the editing time for organic shapes, compared to traditional surface creation methods. [2]
Freeform surface modelling is a technique for engineering freeform surfaces with a CAD or CAID system.. The technology has encompassed two main fields. Either creating aesthetic surfaces (class A surfaces) that also perform a function; for example, car bodies and consumer product outer forms, or technical surfaces for components such as gas turbine blades and other fluid dynamic engineering ...
The geometric properties listed above for general offset curves and surfaces can be derived for offsets of arbitrary dimension. Assume you have a regular parametric representation of an n-dimensional surface, (), where the dimension of is n-1.
NURBS curves and surfaces are generalizations of both B-splines and Bézier curves and surfaces, the primary difference being the weighting of the control points, which makes NURBS curves rational. ( Non-rational , aka simple , B-splines are a special case/subset of rational B-splines, where each control point is a regular non-homogenous ...
In solid geometry, the sphericon is a solid that has a continuous developable surface with two congruent, semi-circular edges, and four vertices that define a square. It is a member of a special family of rollers that, while being rolled on a flat surface, bring all the points of their surface to contact with the surface they are rolling on.
Typical fields in the title block include the drawing title (usually the part name); drawing number (usually the part number); names and/or ID numbers relating to who designed and/or manufactures the part (which involves some complication because design and manufacturing entities for a given part number often change over the years due to ...
Constructive solid geometry allows a modeler to create a complex surface or object by using Boolean operators to combine simpler objects, [1] potentially generating visually complex objects by combining a few primitive ones. [2] [3] In 3D computer graphics and CAD, CSG is often used in procedural modeling.
Parasolid is a geometric modeling kernel originally developed by Shape Data Limited, now owned and developed by Siemens Digital Industries Software.It can be licensed by other companies for use in their 3D computer graphics software products.
