Generative Design with solide edge: a case study
Gouza

Beginner
Generative design in Solid Edge integrates advanced topology optimization within the Solid Edge 3D modeling toolkit, helping designers to create lighter components, minimize material waste in downstream manufacturing. Generative design produces an organic, reduced-mass geometric solution of a specific material optimized within a defined space, accounting for permissible loads and constraints. These highly customized designs are well-suited for casting or high-resolution 3D printing, or they can be modified for traditional manufacturing. Generative design in Solid Edge is unique in that it results in “ready-to-print” surface quality. In this video https://youtu.be/XrHjdoLKATk , you’ll learn: - What generative design is, and how it is different - The step-by-step process for creating an optimized shape Please support by subscribing

Simplification Surface and Surface Mesh

Beginner
https://youtu.be/XQ0Q6M66ToM This tutorial shows you how to transform a multi-patches surface into a clean surface. With the surface simplification functionality, you can merge patches together and obtain a proper surface. Combined with the healing feature, you fill the small gaps and connect all the patches together. To verify if the surface you can offset it to see if it is fully healed. The final step is to open the SIMULIA Structural Model Creation application, to mesh the surface and see why is it useful to clean the surface first.

Design an Easter Egg

Beginner
Hi! I wish you all a Happy Easter 2019!! This is a new Design Fast Tutorial (nb.5) and of course I wanted to show you how we could design a simple Easter Egg on CATIA using shape design. The purpose of this video is to highlight a new feature in Generative Shape Design called Disconnect. First, we will start by making an egg on a geometrical set (surface design) then sketch some curved lines and project them on the egg. we will use the disconnect feature to create several patches on the model. The second phase will focus on transform this shape into a solid. Use the automatic fillet to smooth our egg and just have fun by coloring it! Do no hesitate to add comments or send me message about new topics for instance!

Beginner
There are multiple types of first walls in CATIA V5 Sheet Metal: Planar: Planar first walls are created by selecting a planar face and extruding it. Cylindrical: Cylindrical first walls are created by selecting a cylindrical face and extruding it Conical: Conical first walls are created by selecting a conical face and extruding it. Hopers and extruded walls from lines and splines are two types of features that can be created in CATIA V5 Sheet Metal.

CATIA added sheet metal design in V4, which was released in 1992. However, the sheet metal design capabilities in V4 were relatively basic. It was in V5, which was released in 1998, that CATIA introduced a dedicated sheet metal design workbench, called Sheet Metal Design.
