Motorboat season coming up

Recommended Posts

Hello there,

 

In case you have ever seen (or driven) a wooden motorboat built in the sixties and seventies, you may have been hooked by their classic beauty.

 

If you are interested in doing some "remodeling" please use the fully parametric model that I created some time ago. (It might not qualify as a very close replica but it should help to understand the ideas behind parametric models for functional surfaces.) In order to play with some of the parameters please go to the DesignLab called "familiarize" (see Optimization tab), create a design and modify some of the free variables.

 

Kind regards,

Stefan

 

P.S. Naturally, if you want to share similar models, please do so -- it will be much appreciated!

Hi,

 

You can write arbitrary text files in features. The basic way to do so is:

FFile file("/path/to/the/file.txt")

file.openWrite()

file.write("This is written to the file.")
file.writeLine("This is written to the file with a line break at the end.")

file.close()

You can take a look at the following features to see more complex examples (from the Feature menu):

Tools -> Write Blade Sections

Hull Design -> Connections -> Neptune -> Export SRI ...

 

Also take a look at the type documentation of FFile for a list of commands available for that type. Additionally the section "File Handling" on the "Global Commands" documentation page could be of interest for you.

 

Best regards

Hi Stefan,

hast Du zufällig ein Model des AXE BOW Konzepts? Deine Hilfe ist für mich sehr wichtig, weil ich in der Parametrischen Modellierung ein Neuling bin, erst angefangen. Ich planne dieser Axe Bowed Hull in einem Fischkutter zu verwenden. Ich weiss, das klingt komisch, aber mein Projekt ist so gedacht (Hohe Geschwindigkeit, Froude Nummer=0,375 bei der Länge 20m)

Every help will be appreciated
