Up to Face Extrusion Algorithm for Generating B-Rep Solid
نویسندگان
چکیده
Up to face extrusion (UTFE) is an effective operation to extrude the profile from a sketch plane to a selected face. An up to face extrusion algorithm is presented in this paper. The algorithm first generates the trimmed extrusion through a simple body-surface Boolean operation method, and then generates the resultant solid through a regularized Boolean operation between the original solid and the trimmed extrusion. The algorithm has been implemented in a commercial geometric modeling software system TiGems. Examples are given to illustrate the algorithm.

A Genetic Algorithm based Optimization Method in 3D Solid Reconstruction from 2D Multi-View Engineering Drawings
There are mainly two categories for a 3D reconstruction from 2D drawings: B-Rep and CSG that both these methods have serious weaknesses despite being useful. B-Rep method which has been older and have wider function range is problematic because of high volume of calculations and vagueness in answers and CSG method has problem in terms of very limited range of volumes and drawings that it can an...
متن کاملNew Algorithm for Converting a CSG Representation Into a B-Rep Representation
The purpose of this work is to define a new algorithm for converting a CSG representation into a B-Rep representation. Usually this conversion is done determining the union, intersection or difference from two B-Rep represented solids. We will define another approach where the space used by the solids is determined as a volumetric representation. Then, using the volumetric representation a B-Re...

In this work, the use of interval arithmetic is considered to increase robustness of geometric classification algorithms in B-Rep solid modeling systems. The classification algorithms, also known as incidence tests, are important to keep the consistency between topology and geometry in a solid model during the application of Boolean operations. An error in the incidence test has deep impact ove...
متن کاملConverting CSG models into Meshed B-Rep Models Using Euler Operators and Propagation Based Marching Cubes
The purpose of this work is to define a new algorithm for converting a CSG representation into a B-Rep representation. Usually this conversion is done determining the union, intersection or difference from two B-Rep represented solids. Due to the lack of explicit representation of surface boundaries, CSG models must be converted into B-Rep solid models when a description based on polygonal mesh...
متن کاملSM38: Removal of Blends from Boundary Representation Models
This paper reports an algorithm for deletion of blends (or fillets) from Boundary Representation (B-rep) solid models. Blend deletion is usually performed as the first step in feature recognition since it simplifies the model for recognition of volumetric features. The algorithm handles several blend types that include face-face, face-edge and vertex blends. It also handles interactions of blen...
