Apparatus and Methods for Creating Sketch-Based Eggcrate Substructures for Composite Parts

One or more computer-readable media comprising computer executable instructions that, when executed, perform a method of creating a design, comprising:

• providing an input model from a plurality of inputs, including:
• providing a layout geometry;
• and
• providing a specification data structure;
• creating a resolution model of the input model, including:
• interpolating the layout geometry;
• and
• interpolating the specification data structure;
• finalizing a layout using the resolution model;
• and
• providing one or more solid components into the finalized resolution model to create the design.

A computer-based system for creating a design, comprising:

• a first component configured to provide an input model from a plurality of inputs, including being configured to:
• provide a layout geometry;
• and
• provide a specification data structure;
• a second component configured to create a resolution model of the input model, including being configured to:
• interpolate the layout geometry;
• and
• interpolate the specification data structure;
• a third component configured to finalize a layout using the resolution model;
• and
• a fourth component configured to provide one or more solid components into the finalized resolution model to create the design.
