FLfeatureEdgeSurface2

by Tim C. Lueth, SG-Lib Toolbox: SolidGeometry 5.6 - FS/Feature Surfaces
Introduced first in SolidGeometry 2.1.1, Creation date: 2015-04-08, Last change: 2025-09-14

returns a surface facet list based on a given surface triangulation

Description

In contrast to FLfeatureEdgeSurface, this function also analyzes the final surfaces and separates them into patches (polygon facets) that can be accessed by a patch surface index list.
FLfeatureEdgeSurface analyses the feature edges of a surface, reconnects them into contours, and uses delaunay triangulation on the same points to recalculate the surface. It uses
TRfeatureEdgeFacets
PLELofFeatureEdges2
FLofVLELn
for reconstruction.

Syntax

[NFL,PSIL,CEL]=FLfeatureEdgeSurface2(TR3,angle)

Input Parameter

TR3: Surface volume triangulation
angle: filter angle for feature edges

Output Parameter

NFL: Facet List w.r.t TR3.Points
PSIL: Patch Surface Index List.
CEL: Connecting Edge List CEL=[a b VLi VLj], a,b are indices of PSIL

Examples

Create a solid and recreate the surface
A=SGsample(8);
VLFLfigure; FLfeatureEdgeSurface2(TR3ofSG(A),0.01)
