Abstract
A modeling method for a tubular structure includes: acquiring a structural wire-frame; generating, at each non-manifold node of non-manifold nodes of the structural wire-frame, a polyhedral structure formed by faces of a polyhedron; generating, at each manifold node of manifold nodes of the structural wire-frame, a connecting face; generating, at each end node of end nodes of the structural wire-frame, an end face; connecting vertices of the connecting wire-frame, vertices of the connecting face, and vertices of the end face; and carrying out curved-surface subdivision.
