In both cases, guidelines for selecting the geometric modeling parameters taking into account the specific additive manufacturing process constraints were discussed. Two test cases were presented: the first shows a gradient thickness gyroid in the second the relative density obtained by topology optimization was adopted in our modeling approach using a Schwarz’ Primitive. The proposed method improves the main issues highlighted in literature in the modeling of cellular materials and allows to easily obtain a consistent polygonal mesh model satisfying functional requirements. Moreover, the relationship between relative density and mesh thickness was established for two types of minimal surfaces: Schoen’s gyroid, Schwarz’ Primitive. The approach consists of three main steps: the definition of an initial mesh, the adoption of a subdivision scheme and the assignment of a variable thickness by a differential offset. In this paper, an approach for geometric modeling of variable thickness triply periodic minimal surfaces in a CAD environment is proposed. The structure that is modeled is the control cage for the subdivided model, it’s not just a modifier that when added just somehow makes the model better.Minimal surfaces are receiving a renewed interest in biomedical and industrial fields, due to the capabilities of additive manufacturing technologies which allow very complex shapes. The use of subdivision surfaces is planned, including the subdivision level. There are also severely non-planar polygons Īnd there are non-manifold errors because of two interior faces Yours has n-gons and triangles that make a different pattern when subdivided Subdivisions are predictable with quadrilateral face structure. When using Catmull-Clark to refine the forms by adding more geometry and approximating the surface again, showing the subdivision on the control cage doesn’t show the actual vertex positions and if not before, building a model structure with that on you eventually end up with a mess because of that. The modifier is set to be visible in edit mode, and also on the control cage. That’s added geometry that doesn’t do anything to improve the form so it’s useless. ![]() With that it puts 4x more geometry on each subdivision level (with quadrilateral faces), optimally without changing the surface at all. The modifier is set to simple, which subdivides all faces without deforming it. ![]()
