Context: You add an extruded solid feature by sketching a two-dimensional cross-section and defining the distance over which to extrude it. A sketch and the resulting extruded solid feature are illustrated in the following figure: In addition, you can select a center point and specify a pitch that Abaqus/CAE uses to twist the cross-section as it is extruded. Alternatively, Abaqus/CAE can expand or contract the cross-section along a specified draft angle as the cross-section is extruded. For more information, see Including twist in an extrusion, and Including draft in an extrusion. |
