I want to simulate the movement and deformation of an object over time.&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The object was generated using the sweep function along a C-shaped line, and I want it to deform and move as time progresses. I have a tabular function that defines the positions of points along the centerline of the object at different time steps.&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;How can I effectively implement this so that I can visualize the motion under &#8220;Total Deformation&#8221; in the Solution section?&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thank you in advance for your help!&lt;\/p&gt;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-393731","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_subscription":["481347","240"],"_bbp_author_ip":["137.132.26.114"],"_btv_view_count":["105"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_topic_id":["393731"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27791"],"_bbp_engagement":["240","481347"],"_bbp_voice_count":["2"],"_bbp_reply_count":["1"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["393745"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["393745"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2024-11-12 10:35:28"]},"test":"t0934867u-nus-edu"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/393731","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\/393731\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=393731"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
