final shape of the model simulating the flat layer FDM part looks as shown in Fig.
5.4.
Fig.5.4 Solid model simulating the material structure of the flat layered FDM part
In the case of the curved part, the basic shape is obtained by directly extruding the
mesostructure along a curved path generated in accordance with the shape of the
side view of the finished part. The final solid model simulating the curved layer FDM
part is as shown in Fig. 5.5, and the structure of continuous strands is clearly visible.
