Make Bspline surface from .pan file

[Mr. Md Shahriar Nizam 0]

Hello Guys,

 

I need to make a nurb/bspline surface from a .pan file later on i need to make sections from the file.

Thanks in advance.

I am trying to attach a .pan file but could not do it so  can anybody give me an example for this problem also.

Thanks,

Shahriar

Hi,

 

to be honest, I am not really familiar with the .pan format. I assume it is a panel format. If so, is it structured or unstructured? Is it an ASCII or binary file?

 

In the case of a structured panel mesh in ASCII format, things shouldn't be too difficult. You can import the lattice of nodes with a feature (see this post http://www.friendship-systems.com/forum/index.php?/topic/93-feature-for-import-or-export-of-point-data-to-ffwcaeses/) and then e.g. interpolate them with curves row by row and loft these curves with a surface.

 

In case of an unstructured mesh or a binary file things are more complicated...

 

Cheers,

Mattia

Hey Shahriar,

 

Maybe you can you the feature definition I wrote for you a while ago.

 

Or you can start with that one and make it fit the .pan file structure.

 

Here is another example of a custom import feature.

 

If you need further input do not hesitate to ask. :-)

(An example file and more information about the .pan file will help in that case.)

 

Cheers,
