You can create an XML document containing the eigenstrain or thermal pattern data
required for your additive process.
For more information about the contents and format of the Additive Manufacturing
Library, including example library files, see About Additive Manufacturing Libraries.
-
Using a text editor, create an XML document that includes the eigenstrain
or power regions for your process.
You can copy the data from either the eigenstrain or the thermal pattern example library
to get started.
-
Optional: If the document is defined in units other than SI,
specify the document units in the units selector.
The library is converted from the specified units to SI units on
import for this simulation. The original document is not
affected.
-
Save the new Additive Manufacturing Library document
in the PLM system.
You can use a saved library document across multiple simulations.
