  • METHOD OF ENCODING A 3D SHAPE INTO A 2D SURFACE
    Publication number: 20200151290
    Abstract: The present invention concerns a method for encoding a given 3D shape into a target 2D linkage. The method comprises: (a) providing an initial 2D surface; and (b) defining on the initial 2D surface an auxetic pattern of geometric elements planarly linked between them to obtain the target 2D linkage, the pattern allowing the target 2D linkage to be virtually stretched. The target 2D linkage has a spatially varying scale factor thereby spatially varying the stretching capability of the 2D linkage.

  • Structural weak spot analysis
    Patent number: 10642945
    Abstract: A system and methods for weak spot analysis. A mesh shape is preprocessed to approximate an input model for an object. The mesh shape is analyzed with modal analysis to identify weak regions. A method and system for determining weak spots in an object. The method and system uses an optimization problem which is solved to determine a pressure distribution on the object maximizing maximal principal stress by solving a set of optimization problems maximizing stress for each point of the object.
