Objectives• Understand the various requirements for the information that is
generated during the geometric modeling stage.• Study various types of geometric models possible and their
applications • Develop various methodologies used for geometric construction
such as sweep, surface models, solid models, etc.• Recognize the various types of surfaces and their application as
used in geometric modelling • Appreciate the concept of parametric modeling which is the
current mainstay of most of the 3D modeling systems• Develop the various mathematical representations of the curves
used in the geometric construction• Discuss the various CAD system requirements that need to be
considered while selecting a system for a given application• Understand the concept of rapid prototyping and the various
methods available for the purpose.

Functions of Geometric Modelling
• Design analysis:– Evaluation of areas and volumes.– Evaluation of mass and inertia properties.– Interference checking in assemblies.– Analysis of tolerance build-up in assemblies.– Analysis of kinematics — mechanics, robotics.– Automatic mesh generation for finite element
analysis.

Requicha and Voelker [1981] specified the following properties to be desired of in any geometric modelling
(solids) system.
• The configuration of solid (geometric model) must stay invariantwith regard to its location and orientation.
• The solid must have an interior and must not have isolated parts.
• The solid must be finite and occupy only a finite shape.• The application of a transformation or other operation that adds
or removes parts must produce another solid.• The model of the solid in E3 (Euler space) may contain infinite
number of points. However, it must have a finite number of surfaces, which can be described.
• The boundary of the solid must uniquely identify which part of the solid is exterior and which is interior.

4.2 Geometric Models
• Two-dimensional, and• Three-dimensional.• The three principal classifications can
be – The line model,– The surface model, and– The solid or volume model

4.3 Geometric Construction Methods
• The three-dimensional geometric construction methods which extend from the 2D that is normally used are:– Linear extrusion or translational sweep,
and– Rotational sweep.

Summary• Information entered through geometric modeling is utilized in a
number of downstream applications such as drafting, manufacturing, inspection and planning.
• Geometric models are three types, viz line model, surface model and solid model. Line model though simple is rarely used because of the ambiguity present. Surface and solid models are extensively used in industrial applications.
• Among the geometric construction methods sweep or extrusion is most widely used, because of its simplicity and elegance in developing 3D models.
• Solid modeling provides the most unambiguous representation of the solid model, but is more computing intensive. However to get the correct geometric model, it is essential to utilize solid modeling approach.

Summary• Surfaces are more widely used and it is necessary to use
different types of surfaces such as b-splines, Bezier, NURB, lofted, to get the user requirements fulfilled.
• Constraint or parametric based modeling is the main methodology used by most of the 3D CAD systems. This system helps in grasping the designer’s intent and would greatly facilitate the modification and reuse of the existing designs.
• Some variant modeling systems are used based on tabular data for specific applications.
• Form features is another form of modeling system that helps in designing CAD systems with more intelligence built into the geometric entities that is possible by purely geometric systems discussed thus far.

Summary• The mathematical representation of the geometric entities can
be in implicit or parametric form, the latter being the preferred method used in CAD systems because of its easier adaptation in software development.
• The curve representation methods can be extended for surface representations such as used in free form surfaces.
• A number of modeling facilities need to be considered while selecting a CAD/CAM system for any given application.
• Rapid prototyping is used to generate the product directly from the 3D CAD model data. A number of different processes such as stereo lithography, selective laser sintering, 3D printing, fused deposition modeling, laminated object manufacturing, are used for this purpose.
