Mesh – List of operations
Good cell quality of meshes translate into accurate results within optimum time after computation. But more often than not, we get a mesh output, which is far from accuracy. There are number of factors affecting a mesh, that might compromise with the final result. This chapter focuses on the various shortcomings of a mesh and […]

What are Parametric and Non-parametric Modeling
Table of content Parametric Model/Modeling Non-parametric Model/Modeling In the past, designers resorted to the physical measurement of the product to redraw its geometry. Today, designers use 3D scanners to capture measurements. The scanned data is then imported to CAD, where the design can be analyzed, processed, manipulated, and refined. Two key aspects that fall in place […]

The Reverse Engineering process
Sometimes, situations arise where you don’t have access to a part’s original design documentation from its original production. This might be due to the absence of the original manufacturer altogether or stoppage on the production itself. Reverse engineering empowers us to analyze a physical part and explore how it was originally built to replicate, create […]

What is Reverse Engineering ?
Let us start with an example. One day you get into your garage and find on the workbench a ‘black box’. Stricken by curiosity, you build up an urge to discover what it ‘is’ and what it ‘does’. You start with an inspection of the box’s dimensions, color. Then you try to find its purpose […]
