Recorded at CDFAM Computational Design Symposium, NYC 2024 Presentation Abstract Boundary representation (B-rep) 3D models are the standard 3D representation used in the manufacturing industry. However, only recently has machine learning research begun to make progress on generative models capable of producing B-rep models. This talk will give a summary of the current state of the art for generati...

Recorded at CDFAM Computational Design Symposium, NYC 2024 Presentation Abstract This presentation explores how brands like CCM are partnering with software platforms like Toolkit3D, and using additive manufacturing tools from Carbon to offer customization to consumers with groundbreaking products like the AXIS XF Goalie Mask and the SUPER TACKS X Total Custom helmet.  While designers at CCM used...

Recorded at CDFAM Computational Design Symposium, NYC 2024 Presentation Abstract Engineering creativity and innovation are too often stifled by the tedious process of building simulation models. The process adds no value, can take weeks or months to complete, and far too often results in a model that has gotten out of sync with the design model. Coreform’s new Flex product accelerates engineering...

Recorded at CDFAM Computational Design Symposium, NYC 2024 Presentation Abstract In the context of traditional and advanced industrial settings, the adoption of Scientific Machine Learning (SciML) requires operating in digital-physical environments governed by large-scale, three-dimensional, multi-modal data streams that are confounded with noise, sparsity, irregularities and other complexities th...

Recorded at CDFAM Computational Design Symposium, NYC 2024 Presentation Abstract KPF’s computational geometry processes, whether generating complex building components, documenting, optimizing, rationalizing, or form-finding, consistently rely on a set of core common methods. Across geometrically and computationally diverse projects, we have identified a repeated pattern and codified 5 distinct me...

Recorded at CDFAM Computational Design Symposium, NYC 2024 Presentation Abstract Prosthetic sockets for people with amputation are traditionally provided using a manual, plaster-based process where the clinician captures the shape of the limb using a plaster cast, makes modifications to this surface to load and off-load particular biomechanical regions, before this modified shape is used as the ba...
