Modeling for dynamic heterogeneous objects

Abstract

The static heterogeneous object (HEO) modeling method described in Chapter 3, Static modeling of heterogeneous objects, is mainly applicable to HEOs whose morphological structure and material distribution are simple, and we call them static models. The material in some areas is neither homogeneous nor gradient-based, then we call such objects dynamic HEOs. Hybrid models based on both structure and material can be used for dynamic HEOs. Alternatively, modeling can be implemented based on material, and structural changes can be reflected in material changes. The material can be dynamically distributed and changed according to the variation of properties. This chapter describes this alternative ...
