Solid manipulation
2/28/2017CAD/ALA/6D32
Solid manipulation involves manipulation both geometry and
topology to make resulting solid valid. The manipulations on solid
are shown below :
2/28/2017CAD/ALA/6D33
1. Displaying.
2. Evaluation of points, curves and surface on
solids.
3. Trimming and intersection.
4. Segmentation.
5. Transformation.
6. Editing.
Displaying:
2/28/2017CAD/ALA/6D34
 Solid model can be displayed in two forms : wire
frame display and shaded image display.
 The wire frame display is used to produce line
drawings of solid models. It uses the boundary
representation data of solid model.
 The shaded image display of solid model uses
constructive solid geometry of models. It provides
realistic image of solids.

Evaluation of points, curves and
surfaces:
2/28/2017CAD/ALA/6D36
 Evaluation of points, curves and surface on solid can
be done by considering intersection problems.
 The intersection of plane and solid gives cross- section
of solid model.
 The intersection of curves and solid generates points
and intersection of surface and solid generates curves.
 The surfaces on the solid model can be bounded by the
edges of the solid.
Trimming and Intersection:
2/28/2017CAD/ALA/6D37
 Trimming of solid model can be done by intersecting
the solid models with trimming boundaries .
 The trimming boundaries are the surfaces which
divides solid into two sub-solids.
 The solid outside or inside the boundary can be
trimmed.
Segmentation:
2/28/2017CAD/ALA/6D38
 Segmentation means splitting the solid into 2 or 4 sub-
solids.
 The resulting sub solids will have its own geometry
and topology.
Transformation:
2/28/2017CAD/ALA/6D39
 Transformation can be done either on the primitives or
on the final solid model.
 Transformation may be translation, rotation or scaling.
Editing:
2/28/2017CAD/ALA/6D310
 Editing is used to change the geometry or topology of
the solid model.
 The CSG tree is used to edit solid efficiently.
