Geometric Modeling and Processing — Theory and Applications (GMP'02) Slicing and Contours Generation for Fabricating Heterogeneous Objects Wako, Saitama, Japan July 10-July 12 ISBN: 0-7695-1674-2
A contour sub-division algorithm on each layer arising from slicing a heterogeneous object is proposed. Within each slice, the material grading is decomposed into subcontours according to the different grading variation. A parameter called "grading step-width" is defined to control the number of sub-contours and resolution of the grading. With such discretization, it is, therefore, possible to build a heterogeneous object on layered manufacturing machines of different fabricating precision specification.
