FLofoppositefacesofVLFL

by Tim C. Lueth, SG-Lib Toolbox: SolidGeometry 5.6 - FL/Facet Lists
Introduced first in SolidGeometry 4.9, Creation date: 2020-01-20, Last change: 2025-09-14

returns the list of faces that have opposit facets within a bounding box

Description

This heuristic function uses VLFLoppositefaces on a facet reduced surface (SGreduceVLFL) to detect opposite faces, and uses later SGisInteriorofBB to detect all surfaces within this BB.
This allows to analyze even larger bone surfaces or other surface scanned solids

Current only ONE opposite face are is supported! The function is still slow because of SGisInteriorofBB

The function should later cut the narrow bride between femur an patella

Syntax

si=FLofoppositefacesofVLFL(VL,FL,[dmax,redf])

Input Parameter

VL: Vertex list
FL: Facet list
dmax: maximal distance
redf: number of reduced facet for first opposit faces check. default is 1000

Output Parameter

si: logical index of facets

Examples


SG=SGsample(25)
