A face is a bounded portion of a surface; an edge is a bounded piece of a curve and a vertex lies at a point. Other elements are the shell (a set of connected faces), the loop (a circuit of edges bounding a face) and loop-edge links (also known as winged edge links or half-edges) which are used to create the edge circuits.

Constructive solid geometry allows a modeler to create a complex surface or object by using Boolean operators to combine simpler objects, [1] potentially generating visually complex objects by combining a few primitive ones. [2] [3] In 3D computer graphics and CAD, CSG is often used in procedural modeling.
MeshLab is a 3D mesh processing software system that is oriented to the management and processing of unstructured large meshes and provides a set of tools for editing, cleaning, healing, inspecting, rendering, and converting these kinds of meshes.
Contracting an edge without creating multiple edges. As defined below, an edge contraction operation may result in a graph with multiple edges even if the original graph was a simple graph. [2] However, some authors [3] disallow the creation of multiple edges, so that edge contractions performed on simple graphs always produce simple graphs.
The subdivide tool splits faces and edges into smaller pieces by adding new vertices. For example, a square would be subdivided by adding one vertex in the center and one on each edge, creating four smaller squares. The extrude tool is applied to a face or a group of faces. It creates a new face of the same size and shape which is connected to ...
Blender 4.3 splash screen. Blender is a free and open-source 3D computer graphics software tool set that runs on Windows, macOS, BSD, Haiku, IRIX and Linux.
Winged-edge meshes address the issue of traversing from edge to edge, and providing an ordered set of faces around an edge. For any given edge, the number of outgoing edges may be arbitrary. To simplify this, winged-edge meshes provide only four, the nearest clockwise and counter-clockwise edges at each end.
A cut (,) in an undirected graph = (,) is a partition of the vertices into two non-empty, disjoint sets =.The cutset of a cut consists of the edges {:,} between the two parts. . The size (or weight) of a cut in an unweighted graph is the cardinality of the cutset, i.e., the number of edges between the two parts
