Dear Colleagues,
im working on a CST program to design a new antenna, how i can draw a curved slot or curved strip?
Thank you
Make a cylinder and subtract blocks from it to make it the shape of the slot, then subtract it from the thing you want the slot in. Intersect them to get a curved strip.
To create a curved slot in CST (Computer Simulation Technology) program, you can follow these general steps:
a. Use a combination of straight segments: Create multiple straight-line segments to approximate the curved shape of the slot. Connect these segments to form the desired curve.
b. Parametrically define the curve: Utilize parametric equations or mathematical functions that describe the desired curved shape. Use the appropriate tools in CST to input these equations and generate the curved slot accordingly.
c. Import a pre-defined curve: If you have a pre-drawn curve or a curve generated in another software, you can import it into CST and use it as a reference to create the curved slot.
Greetings, my suggestion towards the same would be to use the option curves (Modelling -> Curves). post drawing the desired curve shapes do select the curve and pick extrude face (modelling -> extrude face). Only when the curve shape drawn is a closed structure you can extrude it. post extrusion now you can substract or add the desired shape.
Hello,
Parametrically define the curve:- This is one of the useful option to define curve like sine, cos or any type of curve. Here, you have to follow few steps like, 1) Go to curve option on modelling icon in CST, 2) under the curve option, go to create analytical curve, 3)You can put the value of x(t), y(t) and z(t) according to 2D and 3D, e.g y(t) = mx(t)
Thanks,
Parametric curve definition is a valuable method for specifying curves such as sine, cosine, or any desired curve type.
