Everything about Geometric modeling kernel
3D modeling software component
A geometric modeling kernel is a solid modeling software component used in computer-aided design (CAD) packages. Available modelling kernels include:ACIS is developed and licensed by Spatial Corporation of Dassault Systèmes. SMLib is developed by Solid Modeling Solutions. Convergence Geometric Modeler is developed by Dassault Systèmes. Parasolid is developed and licensed by Siemens. Romulus was a predecessor to Parasolid. ShapeManager is developed by Autodesk and was forked from ACIS in 2001. Granite is developed by Parametric Technology Corporation. C3D Modeler is developed by C3D Labs, part of the ASCON Group. CGAL is an open-source Computational Geometry Algorithms Library which has support for Boolean operations on Polyhedra; but no sweep, revolve or NURBS. Open CASCADE is an open-source modeling kernel. sgCore is a freeware proprietary modeling kernel distributed as an SDK. K3 kernel is developed by Center GeoS. SOLIDS++ is developed by IntegrityWare, Inc. APM Engine is developed by RSDC APM. KCM is developed and licensed by Kubotek Kosmos SvLis Geometric Kernel became opensource and discontinued, for Windows only. IRIT modeling environment, for Windows only. GTS GNU Triangulated Surface Library, for polygon meshes only and not surfaces. Russian Geometric Kernel. Geometry Kernel, a multi-platform C++ library with source code accessible for clients, developed and distributed by RDF - Geometry Kernel web site. SolveSpace has its own integrated parametric solid geometry kernel with a limited NURBS support. Wikipedia →
