Support Structure Design Example
Step 2: Determine a design concept
The finite element mesh is created with the default element size of 0.8 in. Working Model Concept also requires a target volume. For this part, a target volume of 50% of the initial volume is specified.
Working Model Concept obtained a concept represented by a new finite element mesh. This concept may be viewed as a VRML as shown in Figure 2.
Figure 2: Example of the VRML output. (Click to view VRML file.)
