svLis Set-Theoretic Kernel Modeller
Description
A CSG solid modeller accessed through a C++ API. Primitive shapes are
combined using set-operators, and graphics and geometric data are
extracted from the resulting models using space-division techniques.
Highlights
-
no boundary evaluation: preserves the inherent robustness of CSG
-
programmable space division: processes large CSG models efficiently
-
parameterized models can be defined within C++
-
geometric data types, overloaded operators, and geometric transforms
-
user-defined primitives as well as natural quadrics etc
-
an inbuilt faceter supports fast rendering
-
models may include sheets and wires as well as solids
-
automatic sub-model commoning: handles multiple versions efficiently
-
an attribute class which supports inheritance
-
a mature technology: CSG space division has been researched since 1980.
