Cap Faces
Covering the ends of fluid channels and subsequently mesh the interior
of imported CAD parts.
Select the edges that trace out the surface to be formed.
Easier transition from a purely mechanical model to a fluid or fluidstructure interaction (FSI) model.
48
Parametric Surfaces
The new Parametric Surfaces feature allows for creation of surfaces
based on analytical expressions (sin, exp) or look-up table data
(interpolation tables).
The resolution of the underlying NURBS surface can be tuned by the user
(number of knots) and enable a more detailed surface representation
and finer mesh when called upon.
