Sculptor + Optimize

Sculptor + Optimize extends the capabilities of Sculptor Morph Analysis to support automated rapid shape optimization without the need for repeated CAD updates and re-meshing. Sculptor + Optimize gives you complete control of Sculptor Morph Analysis shape change variables so you can morph your designs based on your product performance criteria. Sculptor + Optimize allows you to leverage optimization capabilities directly or directly link to more extensive third-party optimization tools for integration into your optimization methods and processes.

Sculptor + Optimize includes links to many major optimization systems and two powerful built in optimizers:

  1. An Optimized Latin Hypercube (OLH) Design of Experiments and
  2. Our GRG gradient-based optimizer. These resources provide an excellent alternative for those without access to more extensive third-party optimization tools.

Sculptor + Optimize can be used with Sculptor Morph Analysis for fully automated shape optimization. Optimized designs can be returned to CAD by using Sculptor Morph Analysis with Sculptor + Optimize and Sculptor + CAD.

SculptorPRODUCT NOTES

Sculptor + CAD

Sculptor + CAD lets you return you modified designs back to their CAD format or morph them directly.

Sculptor + CAD is an add-on to Sculptor Morph and Sculptor Morph Analysis that provides the ability to import, modify, and export CAD data for most major CAD and standard based formats.

Sculptor + CAD supersedes the Back2CAD product previously offered by Optimal Solutions.

SculptorPRODUCT NOTES

Sculptor Morph 3.3

Current version of Sculptor Morph is 3.3 released October 2012.

Sculptor Morph provides the full capabilities of for Arbitrary Shape Deformation (ASD) technology to provide real-time 3D morphing technology for STL data and point cloud data.

Sculptor Morph provides the user the ability to easily deform, move features, and modify stl and point cloud formats and can be extended by adding Sculptor + CAD or Sculptor + Match

SculptorPRODUCT NOTES

Sculptor Morph 3.3
Cylindrical ASD

Sculptor Morph provides the capabilities for definition of Cartesian and cylindrical ASD volumes

Cylindrical ASD volumes are beneficial for shape modifications of near cylindrical objects and shape modifications that are radial in nature.

SculptorPRODUCT NOTES

Sculptor Morph 3.3
Shrink Wrap

Sculptor Morph provides the capabilities for modification of ASD volumes to fit the shape of your model through a "shrink wrap" operation.

"Shrink wrap" of an ASD Volume moves the control points of the Volume to the intersection with your model.

SculptorPRODUCT NOTES

Sculptor Morph API

Current version of Sculptor Morph API is 3.3 released October 2012.

Sculptor Morph API is a library of function calls with an API interface designed to perform free form 3D shape modifications bringing the power of Sculptor Arbitrary Shape Deformation (ASD) technology into your application.

More modules are planned to be supported through API interfaces – watch this space

SculptorPRODUCT NOTES

Sculptor + Optimize

Current version of Sculptor + Optimize is 3.3 released October 2012.

Sculptor + Optimize links to most major third party optimization systems.

Sculptor +Optimize also lets you quickly explore your design space using a built in Random Latin Hypercube or GRG optimization algorithm in one user friendly and powerful tool.

Sculptor + Optimize is an add-on to Sculptor Morph Analysis that provides the ability to optimize shape by driving ASD modifications to achieve performance objectives.

Sculptor + Optimize supersedes the Optimization Control Center product previously offered by Optimal Solutions.

Analysis 3.3
Super Planes

Sculptor Morph Analysis provides the capabilities for designation of certain planes in the ASD Volume to act as "super planes".

"Super planes" prevent propagation of changes with no changes crossing the "super planes".

SculptorPRODUCT NOTES

Sculptor+ Match

Sculptor+ Match lets you morph a baseline model to match a target model. This can be used to match deformed results from a different analysis or to match a design/analysis model to an as-built or as-is scan model.

Sculptor+ Match is an add-on to Sculptor Morph and Sculptor Morph Analysis that provides the ability to modify an existing model to match a different model

Sculptor+ Match is a new product for the Sculptor family
