The easiest way to work with the analysis tool is to use the diffusive modulus template.

Use the diffusive modulus template

Requirements:

1. you need to select a model from the models menu
2. instentiate it so that it is shown as origin in the LAYOUT FEATURE
3. in the DOMAIN FEATURE materials have to be defined for casting and mold
4. in the BASIC SETTINGS FEATURE proper bounds for the meshing have to be set. (use either a 10% Margin on the 3d diagonal of the bounding box of your part or enter the dimensions of your mold, for example.)
5. (in the OVERVIEW FEATURE you must see your part shown in the color as selected/given in the DOMAINS FEATURE
6. create a proper discretization of your part using the DISCRETIZATION FEAUTURE for the *DESIGN*

6. create a proper discretization of your part using the DISCRETIZATION FEAUTURE for the *SCULPTING*
7. modify your geometry with the SCULPTING FEATURE by pressing the INITIALIZE button and use of stencils or brush tools to modify the mesh.

The ANALYSIS FEATURE allows you to calculate the solutions for

• Thickness
• Diffusive Modulus
• Thermal Modulus
• Undercuts
• Thickness(Sculpt) and Modulus(Sculpt).

The discretization as well as the solutions may be viewed in different configurations.

You may also alter the appearance of the analysis or highlight important locations by adding annotations using the SHOW HOTSPOT button.
