Thinnest part of a 3D shape formed of tessellations










0














I have a group of tessellations forming a 3D shape and I need to find the section(s) with least cross section radius in it



Following is the visual aid for understanding this problem:



Assume that each rectangle in the A,B and C is a tessellation and this diagram is 3D



Now, Assume that each rectangle in the A,B and C is a tessellation and this diagram is 3D.



I wish to find 'C' ie.. set of tessellations with least cross section radii or thinnest part of the given shape.



How do I find it? I was thinking of finding the faces closest to each other but that will fetch the tessellations inside the shape as well.



I have tried:
1. Finding convex hull (Doesnt give points in thinnest area)
2. Alpha shape (No way to find the faces on the surface)



I would appreciate any advise on this matter.



Thanks

    You might be looking for the shape diameter function.

  • Thank you for the reply but it says unknown link. I looked it up on google and trying it out. Will comment here if that works.

  • Try this link instead. There are multiple follow-up publications about SDF, mostly about how to compute it fast.
