I mastered an advanced level of NX to accomplish this task, which I believe was worth the effort. On Tuesday, I experimented with surfaces, followed by sweeps on Wednesday, and finally completed it on Thursday. The purpose behind my design is to create a support structure that can be infinitely adjusted, enabling FEA optimization through modifications in the number of supports, cross-section size, shape, and location. My model, created using NX, consists exclusively of swept solids, allowing for: 1. Combination of structures via Boolean functions. 2. Reduction of stress risers by incorporating fillets and radii. 3. Independent adjustments of individual members. 4. No limitations due to surface intersections.
