Create polygonal surfaces that can easily be converted into NURBS surfaces. PolyNURBS combines the ease and simplicity
of polygonal modeling with the precision and flexibility of NURBS, allowing you to quickly create free-form solid
geometry that is smooth and continuous.
Measure dimensions, analyze curvature, check for continuity and watertightness, analyze the draft, detect undercuts,
assign tags to entities, edit and visualize streamlines as static images or animations, create design iterations on
the fly, and assign variables.
Edit and visualize streamlines as static images or animations, animate simulation results in mesh models using a color
map, and change the animation loop duration.
Create design iterations on the fly using a design table, where you can quickly modify and set thresholds for the
various parameters of a model, including sketch dimensions, without having to dig through construction history. You
can create multiple snapshot tables, setting different values for variables in each table. Then you can export
the file (model with design table) to HyperStudy to test and explore design alternatives. Variables in the Design
Table also become available in the Animation timeline, so you can define keyframes to animate the value.
Use variables, which can be defined as a value or expression, instead of fixed values when defining the parameters
of many geometry and the dimensions of sketching tools. When you change a value or expression, the model is updated
accordingly.
Dimension a line, edge, bounding box, angle, and radius/diameter in order to create objects which must fit predefined
dimensions. You can also insert a general annotation to label the parts of your model.
