Segmentation of Dimensionally-Large Rapid Prototyping Objects

An algorithm was developed to enable efficient segmentation of dimensionally-large objects into smaller components that can be fabricated within the given Rapid Prototyping (RP) machine workspace. The algorithm uses vertical and horizontal flat plane cuts, as well as feature-based volume decompositi...
