Splitting a curve for refinement?

Jogibaer · December 27, 2015, 18:16

Hi,
I tried a lot of ways but I was not able to figure it out or find the answer in this forum.

Question: How can I "split" the curve into another one so I would get a new single curve for a new feature curve refinement?

I would like to refine the intersection between the body and the wing of the airplane, so only the encircled one on the first screenshot. I can not select the curve through the "split by patch" function when I right click on the body or the wing. I hope my screenshots make it more clear what I'm trying to do. The second picture is a cross section of the wing and the profile to see the mesh continuity. Like you can see, there is a gap between the intersection which is bad of course, so I'm trying to solve it due feature curve refinement like it is written in this pdf on page 34: http://www.cd-adapco.com/sites/defau...ng_Used_KM.pdf

I hope you can help me.
Best regards
Jogibaer

You can assign that curve a different name in 3D-CAD if you have CAD geometry or in surface repair.
