CATIA V5-6R2023: Introduction to Surface Design

The CATIA V5-6R2023: Introduction to Surface Design guide introduces the fundamentals of creating wireframe and surface geometry. This guide takes an in-depth look at process-based modeling techniques used to develop robust and flexible surface geometry. With the design intent as the focus, you learn about shape and continuity settings for simple and complex geometry types.

Topics Covered:
 Reviewing surfacing terminology
 Understanding the surface design process
 Creating wireframe geometry
 Creating simple surfaces
 Creating complex surfaces
 Performing operations on wireframe and surface geometry
 Working with surface geometry in the Part Design workbench
 Managing geometrical elements
 Creating surface fillets
 Understanding boundary representations
 Best practices for surface modeling
