Systems and methods for constructing conformal connections between meshes
Computer-implemented systems and methods for generating a mesh and conformally connecting the mesh to an existing mesh are provided. The existing mesh is displayed via a graphical user interface (GUI) of a computer-aided design modeling system using a processing system. A polyhedral mesh is generated in an empty space adjacent to the existing mesh using the processing system. The generating of the polyhedral mesh includes (i) defining the empty space as a first surface mesh comprising triangles, quadrilaterals, polygonals, or a mixture thereof, (ii) generating a dual of the first surface mesh to form a second surface mesh, the empty space being enclosed by the second surface mesh, and (iii) filling a gap region between the first and second surface meshes with the polyhedral mesh and conformally connecting the polyhedral mesh to the existing mesh using the processing system.
