Abstract
This paper presents an adaptive slicing method for Hermite non-planar tessellated surfaces models to improve the geometric accuracy of Rapid Prototyping (RP). Based on the bending characteristics of Hermite curved triangles, a slicing method for a complete Hermite surface model, including the grouping, the construction of the topological relationships, and the calculation of the intersection contours, was employed. The adaptive layering method considering the normal vector at the vertexes of the Hermite curved triangles was employed to grain the variable thickness of all layers of the Hermite surface model. The classical Stanford bunny model illustrates the significant improvement in the accuracy of the proposed method compared to the traditional method.
