KUBRIX®
|
|
|
Fuzzy-logic Block Decomposition
|
|
Using fuzzy
logic, KUBRIX® automatically
subdivides a solid into a small number of blocks, and builds an all-hex
mesh.
|
|
|
Multi-material Meshing
|
|
KUBRIX® can mesh
objects composed of several materials. The resulting mesh has
coinciding nodes at material boundaries.
|
|
|
Hexahedral
Meshing
|
|
You can build
block-structured, fully unstructured or fully-structured all-hexahedral
meshes.
|
|
|
Oct-tree meshing
|
|
Use oct-tree
meshing to create meshes from low-quality, overlapping and non-closed
surface data
|
|
Tetrahedral Meshing
|
|
Build
good-quality tetrahedral meshes with offset and grading control
|
|
Minimal Convex Block Decomposition (MCBD)
|
|
You can decompose
a multi-material volume into a minimum number of convex blocks for use
in efficient contact detection in DEM mechanics and robotics
|
|
Input: closed, manifold or non-manifold triangular mesh

gridpro, 3dec and zmap
|
|
|
Output Format:
|
|
nastran, patran, ideas, ansys (PREP7), vrml 2.0, ensight,

Rhino3D
KUBRIX® Plug-in
|
|
|
Implementation
|
|
All the capabilities of KUBRIX® can be launched with the click of a button directly from
Rhino3D
|
|
|
Viewing of the mesh
|
|
The resulting volume meshes can be viewed as VRML 2.0
files iin Rhino3D
|
|
Rhino3D utilities
|
|
Use the provided Rhino3D scripts for colorization and
creating single non-manifold BREPS for use with KUBRIX®
