thin-shelled
4.A hickory tree(Carya cordiformis) of eastern North America, having thin-shelled nuts with bitter kernels.
5.The oval, thin-shelled reproductive body of a bird, especially that of a hen, used as food.
6.hickory of the eastern United States having a leaves with 7 or 9 leaflets and thin-shelled very bitter nuts.
7.Considering the problem that it is not fit for Laminated Object Manufacturing (LOM) technology to be used for making thin-shelled part, in this paper, a method of processing the surface model in IGES format, which is exported through Euclid software provided by clients, is presented and described. Not only is the model unclosed, but also its thickness equals to zero. It must be further processed so that the model can be transformed to STL format file that can be accepted by RP system.
