How project or imprint curves or surface onto a solid

hello
how can we project/imprint a curve or a surface onto a solid?
I search for this, because a need (for the pressure application with Code-Aster) a group of surface elements which correspond to a part of a geometric surface, so I have to partition that surface
With Geom- or Shaper-Module
thank you for your help

Re: How project or imprint curves or surface onto a solid

I am not sure I understand your question, but have you tried partitioning the solid with the surface objects? There is a "Partition" tool in Salome for that.
hello Massimiliano Leoni
I know how to partition the solid. But the partition contains multiple solids in it's inner. This is not what I want. I want to partition only the outer surface(s), but there should be still only 1 solid contained in the new object. It is a kind of partitioning, but partitioning only the surface(s) which make up the hull of the solid body, not the solid body itself
do you or any collegue have a solution?
thanks kathi

Hi Kathi,
to get the projection on a face, you can use in GEOM Transformation> Projection. After you will have to call Partition to add it on the result.
Or make a common before partition to have only the imprint on the result.

Hello Kathi. Have you tried doing a partition selecting "Shell" as a resulting type, and then using "Build solid" on the partitioned shell? This should give you a single solid with a partitioned boundary.
