geometry definition

Hi all

I want to create a model composed of various surfaces. At the present stage I need to define something like a parable with base equal to 4.61 mm and "height" of 4 mm. How can I define this type of geometry (I have tried to see in tutorials examples but i did not saw an example of this type of geometry)?

Thanks for your recommendations.

which software?

Hi Max:

At the present moment I´m using the design modeler of ANSYS version 12.0.

Cheers

The Ansys modeler works like a CAD system, you have to sketch your geometry and than create the volume with the "extrude, revolve, etc" tools. If you're familiar with a cad tool you can easily use it and than import your model in the design modeler.

Dear mic:

Thanks a lot for your comments. I have already solved my problem.
