Summary

  • Create a Transverse Tendon within the Tendon Group.

 

How to Run

  • Ribbon Menu > [Model] Tab > [Component] Group > Tendon > Create

 

Explanation

Method to Create a Transverse Tendon

Specify the position directly, or enter the coordinates of the Tendon to create a lateral tendon.

[Tab] Create

  • [Reference Point]
    Defines the reference origin of the tendon coordinates.

    • Offset (Horizontal/Vertical): Define the reference point by moving it horizontally/vertically from the start point of the Tendon Path as input.

  • [Tendon Type]
    Select the type of tendon (longitudinal & lateral).

    • Select Transverse.

  • [Select Tendon]
    Create a new Tendon, or select an existing Tendon.

  • [Classification]
    Select the name and linear type of the tendon.

    • Name : Enter a name for the tendon.

    • Curve Type : Select the linear type of the tendon.

  • Spline : Place the tendon by calculating the curve with the lowest curvature among the curves connecting the points.

  • Round : Place the tendon along the circle that contacts the straight line connecting the points.

  • Polygonal : Place the tendon by connecting the dots in a straight line.

  • [Tendon Direction]
    Select the direction of the lateral tendon.

  • Horizontal : Horizontally align the Tendon Point to position the lateral tendon.

  • Vertical : Align the Tendon Point vertically to position the lateral tendon.

  • [Add Profile Point]
    In the Tendon Editor Table, in Section View / Side View / Top View, click to enter the point that defines the placement of the tendon.
    Alternativley, tendon profiles can be created by entering the coordinates such as Station, Horizontal Offset, or Vertical Offset into the Coordinate Table.

  • [Section View]
    This is a view of the Tendon direction section.

    • The positions of the Tendon Point and the Reference Point are shown in red and blue, respectively.

    • The position of the upper dial at the bottom of Section View indicates the station where the current section is located. (left → right)

    • The lower dial at the bottom of Section View can adjust the size of the Tendon name.

  • [Side View]
    Displays the side view of the direction of the tendon progression.

    • The representative point of the tendon position can be selected through Add profile point > point (Single point).

  • [Top View]
    Indicates the top view of the direction of the tendon progression.

    • The representative point of the tendon position can be selected through Add profile point > point (Single point).

  • [Coordinate Table]
    The values of the points taken in Section View / Side View / Top View appear in coordinates.

    • Points can be added to the Section/Side/Top View by entering the values manually into the table.

  • [Array Tendon]

    • Enter the placement interval for the lateral tendon.

    • Array : Check the positioned lateral tendon with a preview.

  • [Edit Profile]
    Move (symmetrically) the coordinates of the tendon profile relative to the reference point.

    • Hor. Mirror : Move the tendon profile symmetrically in the horizontal direction.

    • Ver. Mirror : Move the tendon profile symmetrically in the vertical direction.

    • Move : Move the tendon profile by an Offset (Horizontal/Vertical).

  • [Align Type]
    Sets the direction of the plane placement of the tendon profile based on the Tendon Path.

  • Tangential : Set the plane direction of the tendon profile to a direction perpendicular to the Tendon Path.

  • Parallel : Specifies the plane direction of the tendon profile in a direction parallel to the Global-Z axis.

  • [Anchorage]
    Sets the Anchorage of the Tendon defined by the Anchorage function.

  • [Reset]
    Initialize the Tendon profile settings.

  • [Preview]
    Displays the preview of the Tendon profile.
