A Simple and Effective Modeling Method for 3D Porous Irregular Structures

Porous structures are kinds of structures with excellent physical properties and mechanical characteristics through components and internal structure. However, the irregular internal morphology of porous structures poses new challenges to product modeling techniques. Traditional computer-aided design (CAD) modeling methods can only represent the external geometric and topological information of models, lacking the description of the internal structure and conformation, which limits the development of new porous products. In this paper, a new simple and effective modeling method for 3D irregular porous structures is proposed, which improves the controllability of pore shape and porosity, thus overcoming the limitations of existing methods in 3D and concave structures. The key idea is to solve isothermal for modeling the porosity of porous units. Experimental results show that the method can easily obtain smooth and approximate porous structures from arbitrary irregular 3D surfaces.
