I read the bend operations, but I had trouble bend different thin volumes together.
Say I have two adjacent volume, I hope they are bent w.r.t same axis, root point and radius. When I try
tweak volume 1 2 root ... they don’t lie on the same Cylindrical plane. Is there other ways to bend thin volumes / 2D sheets?
Hi @WayneYY,
could you share the geometry please.
Bending 2 volumes at the same time should be possible.
reset
create brick width 11 height 1
create brick width 1 depth 10 height 10

move body 2 general location position -3 5 0
move body 3 general location position 0 5 0
move body 4 general location position 3 5 0
subtract body 2 from body 1
subtract body 3 from body 1
subtract body 4 from body 1

Thank for your reply.
I hope to bend 2 (or more) volumes when treating them as one sheet.
For example, for 4 adjacent volumes
reset
create brick width 1 depth 10 height 10
create brick width 1 depth 10 height 10
create brick width 1 depth 10 height 10
create brick width 1 depth 10 height 10
move volume 1 general location position 0 5 5
move volume 2 general location position 0 -5 5
move volume 3 general location position 0 5 -5
move volume 4 general location position 0 -5 -5
can I bend them as if they are one volume
