How to change the blades on a 'dumb solid' (CATIA)

Jack K
in Modeling
10 1 Intermediate
This tutorial is to provide a guide for modifying a CATIA file containing a "dumb" solid. (The reader should be familiar with basic CATIA Part Design commands) This tutorial is to respond to a recent question asked by Nouman Khalid: "This dump solid is generated from a STL and i am given a .STP file. I want all the blades to be similar to generate a reference model for modal analysis. I want the encircled blade to be copied all over rotor. Please guide how this can be done."

The first V6 prototype engine was produced in 1906, however it took until 1950 for the first automotive V6 engine to reach production. In the past 20 to 30 years, the V6 layout has become the most common layout for six-cylinder automotive engines

9 1 Intermediate
To achieve an efficient and well-engineered car roof design, various critical considerations are taken into account. This article explores the aim and objectives of designing and developing a car roof, along with essential factors such as visibility, heat distortion, snow load criteria, and draft analysis. Additionally, the role of roof components, like the front and rear roof rails, reinforcement center, and bow roofs, is examined in enhancing the overall strength and performance of the car's roof. By meticulously analyzing these design parameters, engineers and designers can create a robust and aesthetically appealing car roof that meets stringent safety standards and fulfills customer expectations.

[VIDEO] Topology Optimization on a Bracket

Maxime Chagnot
in Modeling
9 3 Beginner
Hello Everyone, This new video is an introduction to Topology Optimization on the 3DExperience Release 19x. Functional Generative Design application brings the best of CATIA (design) and SIMULIA (topology optimization) in order for you to create light and robust parts. This video will show you the entire topology optimization process on a aluminium bracket that can handle 500N (50kg). You will see how to create a design space and add the functional regions. Then you will create a mesh, add loads and constraints and run a structural simulation. After that you will setup the topology optimization parameters and run the job. The result will be a lighter version of the part. you can run another simulation to validate the result. The organic geometry will be automatically generated. This result can be used for 3D Printed. However if you do not have a 3D Printer, it is also possible to generate a prismatic solid based on machining rules. Hope you will enjoy this video! Find the 3D Model on this GrabCad link: https://grabcad.com/library/topology-optimization-brackets-1 Please Like, Comment, Share and Subscribe :D

8 2 Intermediate
In response to a GRABCAD question from Ayo, here are the steps to make this 3D model in CATIA V5. There are probably many other methods to model this part, but these steps are pretty commonly used. I'm assuming that users of this tutorial know the CATIA basics (like how to make a sketch).

Reverse Engineering: Power Fit

Maxime Chagnot

This video shows you how to transform a cloud mesh (based on a "STL" file) into a proper surface. It is a reverse engineering topic where you have a hull that you cannot work on. With the dedicated Digitized Shape applications, you can transform this mesh into a surface using the PowerFit feature. You will obtain a surface that is very near from the original mesh, with a maximal deviation of 0.972 mm.
