  1. Introduction toBoolean Operations on Free-form Solids CS284, Fall 2004 Seung Wook Kim

  2. Boolean Operations • A natural way of constructing complex solid objects out of simpler primitives • Many artificial objects can be constructed out of simple parts - cylinders, rectangular blocks, spheres, etc. • Very common in CAGD

  3. Constructive Solid Geometry (CSG) • Solids as expressions of Boolean operations of primitive solids • Algorithms implemented directly on the representation

  4. Boundary Representations (B-Rep.) • Solids as a set of vertices, edges and faces with topological relations among them • Boolean operations implemented in the representation framework

  5. Boolean Operations in B-Rep. • Polyhedral solids • Calculating plane-plane intersection only • Generating a single line • Free-form solids • Intersection between free-form surfaces • A high degree algebraic space curve

  8. BOOLE: Algorithm - stage 1 Computing bounding box overlap for each patch and Pruning

  9. BOOLE: Algorithm - stage 2 Paring remained patches

  10. BOOLE: Algorithm - stage 3 & 4

  11. BOOLE: Algorithm - stage 5 Partitioning the boundary into components

  12. BOOLE: Algorithm - stage 6 Classifying components

  13. BOOLE: Algorithm - stage 7

  14. BOOLE: Surface Intersection • Given the two parametric surfaces, eliminate two of the variables (using Dixon’s resultant) • Obtain the intersection curve in the plane as a matrix polynomial • Compute a starting point on each component of the intersection (using curve-surface intersection and loop detection algorithms) • Subdivide the domain of the surface into regions such that each sub-region has at most one curve • For each starting point, trace the intersection curve

  18. Approximate Boolean Operations • Generating a control mesh for intersection of surfaces (approximating the result) • Optimizing the parameterization of the new surface with respect to the original surfaces • Minimizing the size and optimizing the quality of the new control mesh

  19. Approximate Operations: Algorithm step 1 • Compute an approximate intersection curve, finding its images in each of the two parametric domains of the original surfaces.

  20. Approximate Operations : Algorithm step 2 • Construct the connectivity of the control mesh for the result

  21. Approximate Operations : Algorithm step 3 • Optimize the parameterization of the result over the original domains

  22. Approximate Operations : Algorithm step 4 • Determine geometric positions for the control points of the result using hierarchical fitting

  23. Approximate Operations • Subtracting a cylinder from the mannequin head
