About this Block
What it does: Constructs a Cell Map between two CAD Faces. The UVW count input specifies the number of cells in the three coordinate directions. This map serves as a layout for the lattice Unit Cells. Common uses:- Used as an input for the Periodic Lattice block.
- The UVW count input follows the UVW parameterization of the CAD Face. Once the block has run, UWV guides will appear on the Cell Map allowing you to visualize the CAD Face’s parameterization.
- If you’re unsure of what U, V, and W represent on your particular CAD Face, try inputting sample values so that the block runs. Then the UVW guides will appear.
- By default, this block tries to automatically pick the parameterizations of the input CAD Faces to achieve the best Cell Map between them. An overload is available to choose the input CAD Faces’ parameterizations manually.
- By default, the Cell Map contains straight edges only. Uncheck the Linear input for edges that curve more conformally to the CAD Faces.
- If the input CAD Face has an edge that degenerates to a point, then cells incident on that edge will be degenerate. Degenerate cells may be removed with the Trim Cell Map block if desired.
