  • System, method and computer-readable storage medium for defining a load envelope that envelopes a plurality of load cases
    Patent number: 8843326
    Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer-readable storage medium are provided for defining a load envelope, such as a three-dimensional load envelope, that envelopes a plurality of load cases. In the context of a system, the system includes a coordinate system redefinition module configured to define three mutually orthogonal axes in a space representative of at least three load components and a surface facet definition module configured to identify load cases on a surface of the load envelope and to define a plurality of surface facets, such as surface triangles, that collectively define the load envelope. Each surface facet includes a plurality of vertices that are formed by load cases identified to be on the surface of the load envelope.
