Split an untrimmed surface

[Bitekoek (0933189)]

Hello,

I would like to an untrimmed surface in 3 untrimmed surfaces by a curve. I have done this like in the picture below. However, whenever I put loads for my calculation software on one of those surfaces, it still puts the loads on all 3 surfaces. Is there another way to split them in a cleaner way?

Thanks!

you can use pufferfish ShrinkTrimmedSrf, right now you’re untrimming the surface again.

Iterative division of rectangle

This version is much better. The ‘minSize’ slider specifies the minimum length of either edge (horizontal or vertical) of the resulting boxes. Please explore all of the parameter inputs (white group) except for the ‘0 to 300’ domain before making any changes to the code. [div_rectangle_2020Sep13a] div_rectangle_2020Sep13a.gh (41.5 KB) P.S. I left some tools on the canvas in the previous version, not shown in the image. This is only the iterative division code. div_rectangle_2020Sep13a2…

A key feature to making this work is the sFace (Shrink Faces) component, a single line of C# code, used twice.

B.Faces.ShrinkFaces();
