11. Chapter 4 3D Solid ModelingSection 4.4 More Details 11 Triad
[1] Click an
arrow will
orient the
view normal
to that arrow.
[2] A black
arrow represents
a negative
direction.
[4] Click the
cyan sphere to
return to the
isometric view.[3] If the cyan sphere
coincides with the origin,
that means the view is an
isometric view.

12. Chapter 4 3D Solid ModelingSection 4.4 More Details 12 Rotations
[1] Hold the middle mouse button
down while moving around the graphic
area, you can rotate the model.
[2] Free
rotation.
[3] Roll,
rotation about
screen Z-axis.
[4] Yaw,
rotation about
screen
Y-axis.
[5] Pitch,
rotation about
screen X-axis.
[6] The type of rotation depends on
the location of the cursor.

14. Chapter 4 3D Solid ModelingSection 4.4 More Details 14 Bodies and Parts
•
A body is entirely made of one kind of
material and is the basic building
blocks of a model.
•
A 3D body is either a solid body, a
surface body, or a line body.
•
A part is a collection of same type of
bodies. All bodies in a part are
assumed to be bonded together with
one another.
•
In <Mechanical>, parts are meshed
independently
•
A model may consist of one or more
parts.
•
In <Mechanical>, connections
(contacts, joints) among parts must be
established to complete a model.
This is the only
geometric
entities that will
be attached to
<Mechanical> for
simulations.
