Controlling and accomplishing the desired functional material composition in a heterogeneous object (HO) is a close loop process and requires frequent remodeling-and-analysis. Thus, flexibility and capability to efficiently modify the existing CAD model of a heterogeneous object are essential aspects of heterogeneous object modeling. The current work unfolds such capabilities of the developed material convolution surface approach. The geometric and material control features associated with the approach demonstrate the potential to modify existing material-distributions to remodel complex material variations and assure rapid heterogeneous composition adaptations. Convolution material primitives (CMPs), material potential functions, and heterogeneous and grading enclosure are manipulated to achieve desired material compositions across the heterogeneous region. The manipulation process for each control feature has been established. A few examples of modeling and modifying complex material-distributions have been reported for the validation of work.

Heterogeneous object modeling and fabrication has been studied in the past few decades. Recently the idea of digital materials has been demonstrated by using Additive Manufacturing (AM) processes. Our previous study illustrated that the mask-image-projection based Stereolithography (MIP-SL) process is promising in fabricating such heterogeneous objects. In the paper, we present an integrated framework for modeling and fabricating heterogenous objects based on the MIP-SL process. Our approach can achieve desired grading transmission between different materials in the object by considering the fabrication constraints of the MIP-SL process. The MIP-SL process planning of a heterogeneous model and the hardware setup for its fabrication are also presented. Test cases including physical experiments are performed to demonstrate the possibility of using heterogeneous materials to achieve desired physical properties. Future work on the design and fabrication of objects with heterogeneous materials is also discussed.

This paper presents a new multi-directional blending technique for heterogeneous object modeling. Contrary to earlier studies, this paper introduces material blending through multiple features with different material composition. Firstly, the Voronoi diagram of multiple-target curves is constructed to generate bisector of the geometric domain. Then, metamorphosis from the generator feature to target features is performed in two steps. First, optimum curve matching between target features and enclosing Voronoi cells is obtained. Then, an optimum ruling line alignment and insertion technique between the Voronoi diagram and generator features is developed. Next, multi-directional material composition is mapped based on a set of relations. The proposed methodologies are implemented and illustrative examples are given in this paper.

This paper deals with the background and significance of working on heterogeneous objects modeling and briefly introduces the architecture of ACIS and HOOPS and their corresponding functional modules. Based on inverse-distance weighting algorithm to determine the material composition within the object, the general approach to modeling the heterogeneous objects by using ACIS and HOOPS is introduced and demonstrated via some simple examples.
