Optimal Solutions Software announced the release of Sculptor version 3.3.

The solution has been reconfigured with the following modules: Sculptor Morph (advanced morphing technology for STL and point cloud data); Sculptor Morph Analysis (advanced morphing technology for CAE and CFD data); Sculptor+ CAD (advanced morphing technology for CAD data); Sculptor+ Optimize (3D shape optimization leveraging advanced morphing technology); and Sculptor Morph API (API access to advanced 3D model morphing technology for software developers).

"We are pleased to release the Sculptor 3.3 offering a broader use of the ASD morphing technology for efficient reuse of 3D data for better designs and improved shape optimization capabilities. Sculptor 3.3 leverages the real-time morphing technology for a wide range of applications from modification of STL data to 3D shape optimization with integrated simulations," said Mark Landon, CTO of Optimal Solutions. "The new improvements to the optimization capabilities allow for real-time traversing of the design space, with the design objective functions being updated simultaneously with deformation of the model. Sculptor+ Optimize helps find optimal designs and understanding of the complex relationships between the shape change variables and the design functions near the optimal design to be able to determine the robustness of the design. The new restructured Sculptor will allow customers to tailor Sculptor for their own particular uses much more easily. Those interested in our ASD (Arbitrary Shape Deformation - Morphing) technology for use in their own software can now license our powerful ASD API toolkit."
