Solidworks Surface Modeling 4

Question 1

Which SolidWorks command creates a surface by filling a closed boundary of edges or sketch segments?

Accepted Answer

Fill Surface

Answer

The Fill Surface command generates a patch surface that fills a closed loop of edges, curves, or sketch segments with optional curvature control.

Question 2

What does the 'Contact' constraint option do in the Fill Surface PropertyManager?

Accepted Answer

Applies G0 continuity only along the boundary edges

Answer

The Contact constraint enforces G0 (positional) continuity, meaning the fill surface meets adjacent faces at the boundary without matching their tangent direction.

Question 3

When using Boundary Surface, what is the difference between Direction 1 and Direction 2 curves?

Accepted Answer

Direction 1 curves run in one parametric direction; Direction 2 curves run perpendicular to them

Answer

Boundary Surface uses two sets of guide curves that cross each other; Direction 1 and Direction 2 define the two parametric families that control the shape of the resulting surface.

Question 4

Which option in the Loft Surface command prevents the lofted surface from twisting between profiles?

Accepted Answer

Guide Curves

Answer

Guide Curves constrain the loft path between profiles, preventing twisting and controlling the shape of the surface between cross-sections.

Question 5

What is the purpose of the 'Trim Surface' tool in SolidWorks?

Accepted Answer

Cuts one surface with another surface or sketch curve, removing the unwanted portion

Answer

Trim Surface uses intersecting surfaces or sketch curves to cut away selected regions of a surface, leaving only the desired portion.
