Abstract
Up to face extrusion (UTFE) is an effective operation to extrude the profile from a sketch plane to a selected face. An up to face extrusion algorithm is presented in this paper. The algorithm first generates the trimmed extrusion through a simple body-surface Boolean operation method, and then generates the resultant solid through a regularized Boolean operation between the original solid and the trimmed extrusion. The algorithm has been implemented in a commercial geometric modeling software system TiGems. Examples are given to illustrate the algorithm.
