    Abstract: A computer-implemented method designs and manufactures a supporting structure for the packaging of a solid object. The supporting structure comprises a plurality of linear support elements that sustain the solid object inside a packaging container. The method includes: a) providing, as an input, a three-dimensional model of the solid object; b) computing a first cumulative linear mass density distribution of the solid object according to a first axis (x); and c) using said first cumulative linear mass density distribution to determine the positions, along said first axis, of linear support elements oriented transversally to said first axis. The resultant positions enable even distribution of the weight of the solid object among the linear support elements. A computer program product, computer-readable data-storage medium, and CAD system carry out such a method.

    Abstract: A computer-implemented method designs a supporting structure for the packaging of a solid object. The supporting structure comprises a plurality of linear support elements suitable to sustain the solid object inside a packaging container.

The resultant positions enable even distribution of the weight of the solid object among the linear support elements of said first plurality. A computer program product, computer-readable data-storage medium, and CAD system carry out such a method. A supporting structure designed according to embodiments, and its manufacturing method.
