Abstract
We present a numerical method for computing the signed distance to a piecewise-smooth surface defined as the zero set of a function. It is based on a marching method by Kim [Kim01] and a hybrid discretization of firstand second-order discretizations of the signed distance function equation. If the solution is smooth at a point and at all of the points in the domain of dependence of that point, the solution is second-order accurate; otherwise, the method is first-order accurate, and computes the correct entropy solution in the presence of kinks in the initial surface.
