Kinetic Framework Reference

Daniel Russel
Kinetic data structures allow combinatorial geometric structures to be maintained as the primitives move. The package provides a framework to ease implementing and debugging kinetic data structures. The package supports exact or inexact operations on primitives which move along polynomial trajectories.

Definition

Kinetic data structures are a way of adding motion to classical geometric data structures. CGAL provides a number of classes to aid implementation of kinetic data structures.

There are three levels at which the user can interact with the package. The user can use an existing kinetic data structure, write a new kinetic data structure, or replace parts of the framework. The first level is covered in this Chapter.

Main Support Classes and Concepts

Example

The simulation traits class is simply there for convenience in order to bundle a set of related typedefs and create a few objects. As a resulting, creating your own requires little though, and just copying and changing a few lines. An example is below which sets up to use the CORE Sturm sequences to solve polynomials rather than our own (faster) solvers. It can be found in examples/Kinetic_framework/defining_a_simulation_traits.cpp.
