This algorithm applies to the meshing of a hollow 3D shape,
|
2008-03-07 12:47:05 +05:00
|
|
|
i.e. such shape should be composed of two meshed shells: an outer
|
|
|
|
shell and an internal shell without intersection with the outer
|
|
|
|
shell. One of the shells should be a 2D Projection of the other
|
|
|
|
shell. The meshes of the shells can consist both of triangles and
|
|
|
|
quadrangles.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Radial Prism algorithm would fill the space between the two shells

with prisms.

This algorithm also needs the information concerning the number and
|
|
|
|
distribution of mesh layers between the inner and the outer shapes.

Distribution of layers can be set with any of 1D Hypotheses.
