Geometric Modelling at Bath University

Part of our virtual factory

Geometric modelling research at Bath was instigated in 1980 by John Woodwark. He left the University in 1986, and is now the managing director of Information Geometers Ltd and an editor of the Computer-Aided Design Journal. Adrian Bowyer has run the research group since Woodwark's departure.

The group's current modeller is called Svlis (and it's available free). This, like all Bath modellers, is a set-theoretic (or constructive solid geometry - CSG) modeller that uses recursive spatial division for evaluation.
