summary |
The paper describes an algorithm for performing regularized Boolean operations on polyhedral solids. Robustness is achieved by adding symbolic reasoning as a supplemental step to resolve possible numerical uncertainty. Additionally, numerical redundancy and numerical computation based on derived quantities are reduced as much as possible. It also discusses the authors' experience with the implementation of the algorithm |
