PROCESSING DEVICE AND METHOD FOR STRUCTURE DATA REPRESENTING A PHYSICAL STRUCTURE
First Claim
1. Processing device for structure data representing a physical structure, comprising:
- an obtainer module for obtaining structure data representing a physical structure;
a parts defining module for subdividing said structure data into at least two parts including a connection part and a material part;
a meshing module for generating a mesh model approximating said physical structure by transforming said connection part and said material part into mesh elements having different sizes, wherein the mesh element sizes of said connection part are smaller than the mesh element sizes of said material part; and
a processing module for processing said mesh model to estimate physical properties of said physical structure.
