control in a spline the bending radius

[bandy]

Hello
I would like to know if with the controls of generative shape design it is possible to control in a spline the radius of curvature
so to feeling I believe you are active by buying an additional form but if you have info about it, thank you in advance
the thing I need to create the flexible part of a pipe in "mounted" position

the online guide shows these indications:

to specify a curvature bond on a spline point, after setting a tangency bond, indicate a curvature direction and specify a radius value.

the direction of curvature is projected on the normal plane to the tangent direction.

e

it is observed that for specific points it is necessary to insert the information in the following order:

Dir. tangent (transparent direction) tangent voltage dir. curvature (direction curvature) bending radius

fields are activated by selecting values.

in practice to make the way the field relative to the bending radius is activated you must first set the direction of the tangent and the value of the voltage, and then the direction field of the curvature becomes active, you must set it up and finally you can enter the radius.

Let me know.

Hello, thank you for the answer. Turns on the field of the bending radius but I don't think it's doing what I was hoping or I don't understand how it works.
I'll show you if you still want to help me
I have a hose and the spline connecting the 2 fittings should have a radius of 95mm according to specific tube.
to check if the spline I put a sphere with radius 95 "allined" to the extreme face of the reddish gold part that you see up, 95mm from the exit axis.
so if the spline had a radius of 95mm would pass on the surface of the ball, I think.
putting it on the table doesn't give me tangence with a sphere
Am I confusing?

Hello bandy,

I can't understand what you want to achieve, maybe the command to maintain a curve of the value of the radius requires other parameters i.e. lines, plans or curves to be held as a reference, but without the model and without having understood well what you want to do it is difficult to answer.

If you want, I'll send you the online guide.

So to feel, I think you could use the 'combine' command, i.e. curves combined with the 2-curve extrusion. create a sketch according to a plan on which you project the straight traits of the fittings and build a fitting curve that has radius 95, then repeat the same thing in another normal sketch at the first with the same technique and then use the 'combine' you should get a resulting 3d curve.

or build a ball and cylinders on which to project curves to get the desired connection.

Let me know.

I try with the command combines, thank you

Hi.
But do you have to get something like that?
