(austenite/graphite/carbide formation) and binary segregation. Enhanced Fluid Dynamics
| Stage | What you’ll do | Key iFlow 3D Tools | |-------|----------------|---------------------| | | Model the base object, unwrap UVs, assign basic material. | N/A | | B. Cast Generation | Convert the model into a “cast” (a solid that can be split). | Cast Builder | | C. Crack Design | Create a procedural or hand‑drawn crack network. | Crack Generator (Voronoi, Fracture, or Custom Mask) | | D. Advanced Fracture | Apply the crack pattern, set depth, bias, and secondary fractures. | Advanced Fracture (Layered, Stress‑Based) | | E. Simulation (optional) | Animate the cast breaking apart or apply physics. | Dynamic Solver | | F. Shading & Texturing | Paint displacement, diffuse, roughness, and interior materials. | Material Mixer | | G. Rendering | Export to your renderer (Arnold, V‑Ray, Redshift, etc.). | Export Bridge |
Casting simulation is used to ensure the structural integrity of metal parts. A "crack" often involves modifying the software's binary code. This can lead to:
Handles complex fluids like semi-solid metals that exhibit shear-thinning or thixotropic behavior .
