Error Elimination Algorithm on Parallel Surfaces in Mesh Generation of STL Files

Xuelei Tian · 2008

In the right-angle hexahedron mesh generation of STL(Stereo Lithography) files,error usually occurs on surfaces parallel with coordinate planes.To solve that problem,an error elimination algorithm has been brought forward in this paper.The algorithm can find surfaces parallel with coordinate surfaces automatically,divide the whole region of the object into many small parts by those surfaces and adjust the mesh length in every small region.It is verified that this algorithm can eliminate the error,which improves the accuracy of mesh generation.
