Title: Building complex non-crimp fabric structures with python
Post by: Droste on May 05, 2023, 02:57:52 PM

Hello,
When adapting a python script for the creation of non-crimp fabric structures, I encountered the problem that the notation of the object types cannot be derived directly from GeoDict.
So far, elliptical rovings were used (GeneralCruvedEllipticalFiber), where 4 diameters have to be specified. With rectangular (GeneralCurvedRectangularFiber), on the other hand, 4 side lengths are specified.

Is there an overview for the different types and which parameters have to be specified?

Best regards,
David Droste

Hello David,
I am glad to see someone new here.An overview of the possible Gad Objects and their handling can be found in our User Guide for GADGeo: https://www.geodict.com/fileadmin/UserGuide/GeoDict2023/GadGeo2023.pdf#nameddest=GadAdd
Can you have a short look and let me know if this is helpful or if you need further information?
Best Regards,
Aaron
