  2. Morphing with ANSA General • Reshape any type of FE mesh without the need to return to the CAD model for modifications • Introduce parametric shape modifications for optimization purpose • Morphing modifications on both FE and Geometry models • Two main methods: • Using Morphing Boxes • Direct Morphing Integrierte Optimierung mit ANSA, LS-OPT und META – Infotag 01.03.2012

  3. Direct Morphing – without Morphing Boxes • For local modifications of single components or assemblies • Applicable on FE-mesh and geometry models • Different type of movements: Integrierte Optimierung mit ANSA, LS-OPT und META – Infotag 01.03.2012

  4. Direct Morphing – without Morphing Boxes • Snapping to single or multiple target curves • Morphing of FE-mesh or geometry • Origin • Target • Boundary • Morphing • Reconstruct Integrierte Optimierung mit ANSA, LS-OPT und META – Infotag 01.03.2012

  5. Direct Morphing – without Morphing Boxes • Snapping to single or multiple target curves • Morphing of FE-mesh or geometry • Origin, Target, Boundary • Morphing Integrierte Optimierung mit ANSA, LS-OPT und META – Infotag 01.03.2012

  6. Direct Morphing – without Morphing Boxes Fitting surfaces – e.g. fit existing FE-mesh to new CAD-geometry • Original FE-surface • Target CAD-surface • Morphing Integrierte Optimierung mit ANSA, LS-OPT und META – Infotag 01.03.2012
