Flow or bend polysurface about mesh contour

sdomal · September 11, 2019, 3:14am

In below figures:

I have poly surfaces representing the major vessels in the legs(denoted in blue and red). I have spatially manipulated the leg bones which are all individual meshes to bend 60 degrees (top leg) and then 150 degrees (about the knee) via script. I was wondering is there is any way to bend or flow these poly surfaces along the bone while maintaining their integrity. The rhino file link is below if you want to get a more comprehensive look.

A separate question I have regarding the vessels modeled as poly surfaces is if it is possible to maintain the same overall volume and make it straight with no bends?

You are much more likely to receive help if you start a new thread when asking a new question, rather than add it to an unrelated thread.
