Non-Design Space Tool

The Non-Design Space Tool entails two methods to define Non-Design Spaces:

1. The direct method: already existing cells can be directly selected as Non-Design Spaces.

   

   If multiple solids are imported, they can be merged to one solid including several cells with the boolean merge operation. Therefore, the “merge solids as cells” option hat to be selected in order to create the cells. These cells can then be selected as Non-Design Spaces with the direct method in the Non-Design Space Tool.

   

2. The Offset method: Using the split method a Non-Design Space volume can be created with a defined offset value. The split method always cuts through the whole volume unless enclosing surfaces are selected.
