Sketches are two-dimensional profiles that are used to help form
the geometry defining an
Abaqus/CAE
native part.
You use the
Sketch module
to create a sketch that defines a planar part, a beam, or a partition or to
create a sketch that might be extruded, swept, or revolved to form a
three-dimensional part. This chapter explains how you use the tools within the
Sketch module
to create, modify, and manage sketches.
