“…Various existing surface mesh generation algorithms were investigated for their application as a mapping mesh generator for AM textile data generation, including:indirect or parametric space types (Marur, 2005);advancing front types (Borouchaki et al , 2000); anddirect and indirect sphere packing types (Shimada et al , 1997). Additionally, several commercially available finite element (FE) pre‐processors were also explored, including:Fluent Gambit (Fluent, 2011).…”

Design/methodology/approach -A series of Additive Manufactured textiles samples were modelled using currently available Computer Aided Design software to understand the limitations associated with the generation of conformal data. Results of the initial three dimensional modelling processes informed the exploration and development of a new dedicated efficient modelling strategy that was tested to understand its capabilities. Findings -The research demonstrates the dramatically improved capabilities of the developed three dimensional modelling strategy, over existing approaches by accurately mapping complex geometries described as STL data to a mapping mesh without distortion and correctly matching the orientation and surface normal. Originality/value -To date the generation of data for AM textiles has been seen as a manual and timeconsuming process. The research presents a new dedicated methodology for the efficient generation of complex and conformal Additive Manufactured textile data that will underpin further research in this area.

The lightweight representation of three-dimensional computer-aided design (3D CAD) models has drawn much attention from researchers as its usefulness in collaborative product development is vast. Existing approaches are mostly based on feature depression or mesh-based simplification. In this article, a new approach for 3D CAD lightweight representation based on combining triangular mesh representation and boundary representation (B-rep) is proposed. The corresponding data structure as well as the conversion method from original data given in B-rep was developed. Considered as an essential application in collaborative product development, a case study on the visualization process of large-scale assembly models represented in the proposed lightweight representation was also conducted. The validation of the approach was performed via experiments with 3D CAD models in SAT format and by benchmarking with the conventional all-faceted approach with the same level of mesh resolution.
