Brep BRep solid entity definition. A manifold solid B-rep is

a finite, arcwise connected volume bounded by one

or more surfaces, each of which is a connected,

oriented, finite, closed 2-manifold. There is no
restriction on the genus of the volume, nor on the
number of voids within the volume.

The Boundary Representation (B-rep) of a manifold

solid utilizes a graph of edges and vertices
embedded in a connected, oriented, finite, closed
two manifold surface. The embedded graph divides
the surface into arcwise connected areas known as
faces. The edges and vertices, therefore, form the
boundaries of the face and the domain of a face
does not include its boundaries. The embedded
graph may be disconnected and may be a pseudo
graph. The graph is labeled; that is, each entity in the
graph has a unique identity. The geometric surface
definition used to specify the geometry of a face
shall be 2-manifold embeddable in the plane within
the domain of the face. In other words, it shall be
connected, oriented, finite, non-self-intersecting,
and of surface genus 0.

Faces do not intersect except along their boundaries.

Each edge along the boundary of a face is shared by
at most one other face in the assemblage. The
assemblage of edges in the B-rep do not intersect
except at their boundaries (i.e., vertices). The
geometry curve definition used to specify the
geometry of an edge shall be arcwise connected and
shall not self intersect or overlap within the domain
of the edge. The geometry of an edge shall be
consistent with the geometry of the faces of which it
forms a partial bound. The geometry used to define
a vertex shall be consistent with the geometry of the
faces and edges of which it forms a partial bound.

A B-rep is represented by one or more closed shells

which shall be disjoint. One shell, the outer, shall
completely enclose all the other shells and no other
shell may enclose a shell.

arrowhead).

Mesh A triangle mesh is a type of polygon mesh in

computer graphics. It comprises a set of triangles
(typically in three dimensions) that are connected by
their common edges or corners.

Depending on the types of vertices and triangles,

it can assume different configurations, see table
below.

Mesh.FaceCollection Class that represents a collection of

Mesh.FaceElement objects.

Mesh.FaceElement The face element.

MultilineText Multiline Text entity.

OrdinateDim Ordinate dimension entity.

The ordinate dimension consists of an X or Y value
with a leader line.

It measures the perpendicular distance from an

origin point (called the datum) to a defining point
(such as a hole in a part).

X-datum ordinate dimensions measure the distance

of the defining point from the datum along the X
axis.

Y-datum ordinate dimensions measure the distance

of the defining point from the datum along the Y
axis.

If the dimension is vertical it measures the X value.

Otherwise, it measures the Y value.

Picture Picture entity.

PlanarEntity Base class for all planar entities.

vertices can assume different configurations, see
table below:

contour in the list is the outer and has
counterclockwise orientation. Inners are oriented

keep booleans operation reasonably fast, the solid is
split in more portions.
