CGAL 4.4 - 3D Triangulation Data Structure
|
3D-triangulation data structures are meant to maintain the combinatorial information for 3D-geometric triangulations.
In CGAL, a triangulation data structure is a container of cells ( \( 3\)-faces) and vertices ( \( 0\)-faces). Following the standard vocabulary of simplicial complexes, an \( i\)-face \( f_i\) and a \( j\)-face \( f_j\) \( (0 \leq j < i \leq 3)\) are said to be incident in the triangulation if \( f_j\) is a (sub)face of \( f_i\), and two \( i\)-faces \( (0 \leq i \leq 3)\) are said to be adjacent if they share a common incident (sub)face.
Each cell gives access to its four incident vertices and to its four adjacent cells. Each vertex gives direct access to one of its incident cells, which is sufficient to retrieve all the incident cells when needed.
The four vertices of a cell are indexed with 0, 1, 2 and 3. The neighbors of a cell are also indexed with 0, 1, 2, 3 in such a way that the neighbor indexed by \( i\) is opposite to the vertex with the same index (see Figure 38.1).
Edges ( \( 1\)-faces) and facets ( \( 2\)-faces) are not explicitly represented: a facet is given by a cell and an index (the facet i of a cell c is the facet of c that is opposite to the vertex of index i) and an edge is given by a cell and two indices (the edge (i,j) of a cell c is the edge whose endpoints are the vertices of indices i and j of c).
As CGAL explicitly deals with all degenerate cases, a 3D-triangulation data structure in CGAL can handle the cases when the dimension of the triangulation is lower than 3 (see Section Representation).
Thus, a 3D-triangulation data structure can store a triangulation of a topological sphere \( S^d\) of \( \mathbb{R}^{d+1}\), for any \( d \in \{-1,0,1,2,3\}\).
The second template parameter of the basic triangulation class (see Chapter 3D Triangulations) CGAL::Triangulation_3 is a triangulation data structure class. (See Chapter chapterTDS3.)
To ensure all the flexibility of the class CGAL::Triangulation_3, a model of a triangulation data structure must be templated by the base vertex and the base cell classes (see Representation): TriangulationDataStructure_3<TriangulationVertexBase_3,TriangulationCellBase_3>. The optional functionalities related to geometry are compulsory for this use as a template parameter of CGAL::Triangulation_3.
A class that satisfies the requirements for a triangulation data structure class must provide the following types and operations.
I/O
The information stored in the iostream is: the dimension, the number of vertices, the number of cells, the indices of the vertices of each cell, then the indices of the neighbors of each cell, where the index corresponds to the preceding list of cells. When dimension < 3, the same information is stored for faces of maximal dimension instead of cells.
Concepts | |
| concept | Cell |
The concept TriangulationDataStructure_3::Cell stores four Vertex_handles to its four vertices and four Cell_handles to its four neighbors. The vertices are indexed 0, 1, 2, and 3 in consistent order. The neighbor indexed \( i\) lies opposite to vertex i. More... | |
| concept | Vertex |
The concept TriangulationDataStructure_3::Vertex represents the vertex class of a 3D-triangulation data structure. It must define the types and operations listed in this section. Some of these requirements are of geometric nature, they are optional when using the triangulation data structure class alone. They become compulsory when the triangulation data structure is used as a layer for the geometric triangulation class. (See Section Software Design.) More... | |

During the flip, these three tetrahedra disappear and two tetrahedra appear. Figure TDS3figflips (left) shows the edge that is flipped as bold dashed, and one of its three incident facets is shaded. On the right, the facet shared by the two new tetrahedra is shaded.

| const ConvertVertex & | convert_vertex, | ||
| const ConvertCell & | convert_cell | ||
| ) |
tds_src is copied into this.
As the vertex and cell types might be different and incompatible, the creation of new cells and vertices is made thanks to the functors convert_vertex and convert_cell, that convert vertex and cell types. For each vertex v_src in tds_src, the corresponding vertex v_tgt in this is a copy of the vertex returned by convert_vertex(v_src). The same operations are done for cells with the functor convert_cell. If v != TDS_src::Vertex_handle(), a handle to the vertex created in this that is the copy of v is returned, otherwise Vertex_handle() is returned.
ConvertVertex must provide two operator()'s that are responsible for converting the source vertex v_src into the target vertex:Vertex operator()(const TDS_src::Vertex& v_src); This operator is used to create the vertex from v_src.void operator()(const TDS_src::Vertex& v_src, Vertex& v_tgt); This operator is meant to be used in case heavy data should transferred to v_tgt.c_src into the target cell:Cell operator()(const TDS_src::Cell& c_src); This operator is used to create the cell from c_src.void operator()(const TDS_src::Cell& c_src, Cell& c_tgt); This operator is meant to be used in case heavy data should transferred to c_tgt.v is a vertex of tds_src or is Vertex_handle(). | Cell_handle TriangulationDataStructure_3::create_cell | ( | const Cell & | c = Cell()) |

| ) |
Creates a new vertex by starring a hole.
It takes an iterator range [cell_begin; cell_end[ of Cell_handles which specifies a set of connected cells (resp. facets in dimension 2) describing a hole. (begin, i) is a facet (resp. an edge) on the boundary of the hole, that is, begin belongs to the set of cells (resp. facets) previously described, and begin->neighbor(i) does not. Then this function deletes all the cells (resp. facets) describing the hole, creates a new vertex v, and for each facet (resp. edge) on the boundary of the hole, creates a new cell (resp. facet) with v as vertex. v is returned.

| Vertex_handle TriangulationDataStructure_3::insert_increase_dimension | ( | Vertex_handle | star = Vertex_handle()) |
Transforms a triangulation of the sphere \( S^d\) of \( \mathbb{R}^{d+1}\) into the triangulation of the sphere \( S^{d+1}\) of \( \mathbb{R}^{d+2}\) by adding a new vertex v: v is linked to all the vertices to triangulate one of the two half-spheres of dimension \( (d+1)\).
Vertex star is used to triangulate the second half-sphere (when there is an associated geometric triangulation, star is in fact the vertex associated with its infinite vertex). See Figure TDS3figtopoinsert_outside_affine_hull.
The numbering of the cells is such that, if f was a face of maximal dimension in the initial triangulation, then (f,v) (in this order) is the corresponding face in the new triangulation. This method can be used to insert the first two vertices in an empty triangulation.
A handle to v is returned.

| bool TriangulationDataStructure_3::is_valid | ( | bool | verbose = false) | const |
This is a function for debugging purpose.

| void TriangulationDataStructure_3::swap | ( | TriangulationDataStructure_3 & | tds1) |

There is no copy of cells and vertices, thus this method runs in constant time. This method should be preferred to tds=tds1 or tds(tds1) when tds1 is deleted after that.
