Generation of swept volumes of toroidal endmills in five-axis motion using space curves
Accurate prediction of the swept volume of a cutting tool is essential in NC verification algorithms for detecting deficiencies in a proposed tool path, such as gouging, undercutt...

Matchmaker: manifold BReps for non-manifold r-sets
Many solid modeling construction techniques produce non-manifold r-sets (solids). With each non-manifold model N we can associate a family of manifold solid models that are infini...

A novel FEM-based dynamic framework for subdivision surfaces
Subdivision surfaces have been extensively used to model smooth shapes of arbitrary topology. Recursive subdivision on an userdefined initial control mesh generates a visually pl...

Fast volume-preserving free form deformation using multi-level optimization
We present an efficient algorithm for preserving the total volume of a solids undergoing free-form deformation using discrete level-of-detail representations. Given the boundary r...

Resolving non-uniqueness in design feature histories
Nearly all major commercial computer-aided design systems have adopted a feature-based design approach to solid modeling. Models are created via a sequence of operations which app...
