A new spatial data structure for triangular mesh with toroidal patches

We introduce a novel spatial data structure for a triangular mesh consisting of osculating toroidal patches. A toroidal patch is generated using the differential geometry of a vertex by approximating a local surface to estimate the principal curvatures and directions. Within a given tolerance, the a...
