Dear Community,
as far as i understand, there is not integrated solution in Inventor to create radial packing patterns like so:
the diameter d_0 of the minor spheres is given, and either the outer diameter d_c is given, or the number of "layers" of hexagonal arrays (in this picture = 5) is given.
Furthermore, an additional inner diameter shall be given in the iLogic code to produce a donut-Shape circle:
Is it possible to create an ilogic code to produce all this as one ipt? The idea behind this is to resemble the theoretical filling of a hollow tube with beads. in 3D , the final result should look like in this fake-solution using a texture:
for small d_0 and large d_c, the solution might become an issue performance wise. Do you have any suggestions?
Thank you in advance!
