Abstract

Interactive design of a n-ary tree data structure for F-rep (functionally represented) geometric models is discussed. The interactive Construction Tree tool which is a part of an F-rep modeler is designed to construct a tree structure and convert it to a HyperFun language description. With the developed tool, a model in HyperFun can be also read with a corresponding graphical tree displayed. The user can interact with the 3D geometric model through the graphical tree. Using the interactive design of a construction tree, the user will be able to create HyperFun models more easily than before. The geometric data structures will be incorporated into a design database for intended use on clusters of computer servers allowing low end clients access to advanced geometric modeling over the Internet.
