SFF technologies have the potential to become manufacturing process that are capable of producing
parts that have not been feasible by other techniques. The fabrication of Functionally Gradient Material
(FGM) is one of the possible candidate. It is critical.to provide three dimensional material gradient data
in the solid model to fabricate FGM. The approach is to model spatially varying material density
distribution on implicit solid geometry using a hypertexturing scheme and a procedural volumetric
modeling. It is essentially an extension of procedural solid texture synthesis, which has been effectively
used to model cloud, gas, and flow stream. It will save the amount of information storage especially
when the gradient pattern is repeating. Geometric operation becomes convenient since the material data
are linked to the geometry only by the reference surfaces.Mechanical Engineerin
