Specifically, I&rsquo;m parametrizing a structure composed of four Body-Centered Cubic (BCC) cells. The goal is to parameterize both the strut diameter and the side length.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;As those familiar with this type of structure might expect, when you parameterize the length size, it can eventually lead to the struts intersecting with each other. The core issue arises when I extrude the struts in a direction parallel to the strut&rsquo;s axis&mdash;the center of the cell doesn&rsquo;t move, causing this unwanted intersection.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Has anyone else faced a similar issue? Any advice on how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Thank you in advance for your help!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Best Regards, &lt;br&gt;Giuseppe&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&nbsp;&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&nbsp;&lt;\/p&gt;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-387271","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry","topic-tag-intersection","topic-tag-pull","topic-tag-spaceclaim"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_subscription":["110641","81"],"_bbp_author_ip":["90.147.76.27"],"_btv_view_count":["327"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_edit_lock":["1727429842:110641"],"_bbp_notification_enabled":["110641"],"_bbp_topic_id":["387271"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27789"],"_bbp_engagement":["81","110641"],"_bbp_voice_count":["2"],"_bbp_reply_count":["1"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["388155"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["388155"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2024-10-04 10:52:54"]},"test":"giuseppe-iacolinounikorestudent-it"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/387271","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/387271\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=387271"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
