Parametric Re-Design
A parameterized re-design process allows to modify every parameter of a model.

Manual Re-designs
Original instance (small holes)
Re-designed instance (larger holes)

Automated Re-designs Using Tables
Original instance (3 small holes)
Re-designed instance (4 large holes)
Design with Templates
Templates are parameterized geometry models. They are built into GeoCreate and are very useful for automatic re-designs. The templates can also be dynamically created by the user, either from scratch or by modifying existing ones.
Multiple ways to handle the Templates:
- via input from CENTAUR
- via input from Geocreate
- via scripting
Wing Template
Templates: Libraries
Extensive database of existing designs available:
- Aircraft: airfoils, wings, tails, fuselages, engines
- Turbomachines: gas turbines, steam turbines, hydro turbines, wind turbines
- Helicopters
Example of an airfoil template.

More Options:
- Create your own library for specific component(s)
- Combine libraries
