F1 car design in Catia V5 xvi


Will it float?

The goal of all this work is not just to create surfaces, but to create solids that can be manufactured.

Will it float? Is it "waterproof?" In other words, how good is the quality of the surfaces that I've created?

Close all three of the openings.

First the cockpit. Fill the cockpit opening.


Create a sweep at x=-1


Trim this


Copy that sweep, set it at x=-4429 and trim


Join all. Go to the Mechanical Design - Part Design workbench. Close surface


Hide the surfaces

That is a solid.

It floats.
