A line represents a curve in space and is not attached to any surface or solid. A line is a one-dimensional geometric entity.
Use the Midlines tool to create midlines from existing lines, surface edges, or tube solids.
Use the Circles tool to create circles for geometry construction, edit free circles, and create/toggle filled circles, for example, disk surfaces.
Use the Rectangles tool to create rectangles for geometry construction, edit free rectangles, and create/toggle filled rectangles.
A surface represents the geometry associated with a physical part. A surface is a two-dimensional geometric entity that may be used in automatic mesh generation.
Solids are closed volume of surfaces that can take any shape. Solids are three-dimensional entities that can be used in automatic tetra and solid meshing.
Use the Midsurfaces tool to extract the midsurface of sheet metal stampings, molded plastic parts with ribs, and other parts that have thickness clearly smaller than width and length.
Drag surfaces, nodes, or lines along their normal direction, a vector, or another line.
Use the Ruled tools to create surfaces/solids by interpolating lines and surfaces either linearly or smoothly.
Explore the tools used to edit geometry.
Clean up problematic areas on geometry.
When performing cleanup or defining simulation parameters, it can be helpful to first find and isolate certain types of geometry. This will give you a better idea of the areas in the model you need to focus on.
Set up the simulation model, materials, domains, and boundaries.
Define radiation conditions and create emissivity models.
Define direct, derived, and constrained mesh motion.
Generate surface/volume mesh by defining mesh controls, or interactively create and edit 2D surface mesh.
Define output conditions, run the simulation, and view the results.
Use the Template Manager to define rule-based logic for groups, geometric operations, and setup and automate simulation processes.
Post-process the simulation results by creating visualizations and measurements.
