Tutorials

In this folder we collect several useful tutorials in order to understand the principles and the potential of PyGeM. Please read the following table for details about the tutorials.

Name	Description	PyGeM used classes	input geometries
Tutorial1 [.ipynb, .py, .html]	free-form deformation to morph a spherical mesh	pygem.FFD	numpy.ndarray
Tutorial2 [.ipynb, .py, .html]	free-form deformation to morph a cylinder	pygem.cad.FFD	IGES file
Tutorial3 [.ipynb, .py, .html]	radial basis function to morph a cubic mesh	pygem.RBF	numpy.ndarray
Tutorial4 [.ipynb, .py, .html]	inverse distance weighting to deform a cubic mesh	pygem.IDW	numpy.ndarray
Tutorial5 [.ipynb, .py, .html]	free-form deformation to deform an object contained to file	pygem.FFD	.vtp file, .stl file
Tutorial6 [.ipynb, .py, .html]	interpolation of an OpenFOAM mesh after a deformation	pygem.FFD/RBF	OpenFOAM
Tutorial7 [.ipynb, .py, .html]	constrained free form deformation	pygem.CFFD/BFFD/VFFD	.stl file

Old version

Below all the tutorials for the previous release. We will convert them in order to make compatible with the latest version of PyGeM; meanwhile we still publish these old examples since they may help the users in some application.

Tutorial 3

Here it is possible to understand how to deform a unv file with a prescribed continuity using the free form deformation.

Tutorial 6 [.py]

This tutorial shows how to deform a LS-Dyna k file with a prescribed continuity using the free-form deformation.

Tutorial 7 [.py]

This tutorial shows how to deform a Kratos Multiphysics mdpa file with a prescribed continuity using the free-form deformation.

More to come...

We plan to add more tutorials but the time is often against us. If you want to contribute with a notebook on a feature not covered yet we will be very happy and give you support on editing!
