boundary |
the topological limit of an element |
|
|
gap |
the measured distance or angle between two surfaces |
geometry |
the relation between elements taking into account their exact
quantitative measurements |
|
|
healing |
the action of filling a gap that may exist between two adjacent
surfaces |
|
|
join |
the topological operation in which adjacent surfaces can be assembled
to make up one element |
|
|
Connection distance |
the distance between two adjacent edges and beyond which gaps can be
defined as holes |
|
|
smoothing |
the action of correcting the geometry of edges |
|
|
topology |
the relation between elements abstracted from exact quantitative
measurements |
