Shape Matching

Match a Baseline Model to a Target Model

Shape Matching uses Sculptor’s embedded GRG optimization techniques to minimize the difference between the baseline and target models.

Use with Sculptor to Match Models

Shape Matching extends the capabilities of Sculptor to leverage Arbitrary Shape Deformation (ASD) technology to match a baseline model to a target model. Sculptor+ Match uses Sculptor’s embedded GRG optimization techniques to minimize the difference between the baseline and target models. The comprehensive and robust ASD technology provides the ability to match differing models. This matching capability can be used to match deformed results from a different analysis or to match a design/analysis model to an as-built or as-is scan model.

Sculptor+ Match can be used with Sculptor Morph or Sculptor Morph Analysis for matching models. The process is straightforward as follows:

  1. Import baseline model
  2. Import target model
  3. Compare the baseline model to the target model
  4. Create an ASD Volume that encompasses both models
  5. Use Sculptor+ Match to minimize the difference between the baseline and target models

Using Optimal Solutions’ Arbitrary Shape Deformation (ASD) technology, you can deform models to match a different target model.
