Customer need
Live Parts uses a proprietary hybrid representation of shape that rapidly evolves and updates in time based on a variety of bio/chemical analogies subject to structural constraints and optimality criteria. Meshing is not an option and Desktop Metal did not want to develop a new customized solver.
Demonstrates
- Geometry: voxels and meshes
- Material: isotropic
- Physics: linear static stress
- Deployment: on the cloud using a customized native API
Benefits of Intact Solutions’ plug and play technology for Live Parts
Challenges addressed
- Radically new representation of shape
- In-the-loop analysis of rapidly changing geometry requiring highly efficient analysis
- No time for pre-processing
- Deployment on the cloud and integrated using API
Additional benefits
- Ability to accommodate future changes in shape representation, material, physics, etc.
