Addendum Surface Design Based on the Parametric Method
The paper proposes to establish the section curve types database based on the user-modified characteristic parameters, and presents the method based on thin-plate-under-tension model to generate addendum surface by the section curves and connect-lines, there has the second-order continues between surface-patches, thus ensure the overall good smoothing of the surface. The relevant parametric design modules which based on software KMAS
TM
are independently developed in Visual C++, and we use an auto panel addendum surface successfully design process as an example to illustrate the application and effectiveness of this proposed method.
