Abstract

We construct a volume whose boundary is a tetrahedron with triangular faces intersecting the cutting planes along the given contours. This volume is obtained by calculating the Delaunay triangulation slice by slice, mapping 2D to 3D as tetrahedron. Also, eliminate extra-voronoi skeleton and non-solid tetrahedron. In this paper, we propose new method to eliminate non-solid tetrahedron based on the modified extra-voronoi skeleton path. This method enable us to do a compact tetrahedrisation and to reconstruct complex shapes.
