This
function is utilized to project a flat blank with refined mesh onto a deformed
blank with coarser mesh. This application is useful for converting coarse blank
mesh (from gravity loading simulation) to refined blank mesh needed for binder
wrap and/or drawing simulation.
If
the Blank Mapping is selected, the following message is printed in the message
prompt window:
SELECT COARSE MESH FOR THE FLAT BLANK
The
user selects coarse blank mesh from the Select Part dialog box. The flat blank
with coarse mesh is the initial blank mesh used in gravity loading simulation.
After flat blank with coarse mesh is selected, the following message is printed
in the message prompt window:
SELECT COARSE MESH FOR THE DEFORMED BLANK
The
user selects deformed blank with coarse mesh that is produced by gravity
loading simulation. deformed blank with the coarse mesh is selected, the
following message is printed in the message prompt window:
SELECT FINE MESH FOR THE FLAT BLANK
The user selects flat blank with the refined mesh.
Both flat blanks must share identical dimensions. eta/DYNAFORM will
automatically map refined blank mesh to deformed blank shape. The deformed
blank with finer mesh is then used for subsequent binder wrap and/or draw
simulation.
