Abstract

A strategy is presented to find a set of points that yields a Conforming Delaunay tetrahedralization of a three-dimensional Piecewise-Linear complex (PLC). This algorithm is novel because it imposes no angle restrictions on the input PLC. In the process, an algorithm is described that computes a planar conforming Delaunay triangulation of a Planar Straight-Line Graph (PSLG) such that each triangle has a bounded circumradius, which may be of independent interest.
