Analytical Surface
This tool is used to define analytical surface for abaqus and ADVC. Extrude and revolve type are supported.
Surface Profile: Sketch can be defined on sketching plane using line or arc option with the help of nodes.
- Extrude: Used to define analytical surface profile
for extrude type based on the sketch.
- Revolve: Used to define analytical surface profile
for revolve type based on the sketch and revolution axis.
