Parametric Surface

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi Everyone, How to split a sphere(surface) in four equal tetrahedral quaters. However I have done the same using the some bolean operation between the tetrahedron and sphere but I has gap between the sectors. Now I want to split the whole sphere into the same geometry but only split means no Gap between the sectors. Please find the JPEG that i have already prepared using COMSOL

Hello Suresh,

Because of the subject line on your post, I am guessing that you are using parametric surfaces to create your geometry. An alternate route would be to start with a sphere and to partition it with 6 workplanes. The attached file should give you an idea (I am using version 6.0; I don't have 5.5 any longer). I only partitioned the sphere with 3 of the planes; I'll let you have fun with the trigonometry for the remaining 3 :)

Best,

Jeff
