However, evaluating Boolean operations may be quite numerically unstable and time consuming, especially for iterated set operations. A novel and unified technique is proposed in this paper for computing single and iterated set operations efficiently, robustly and exactly. An adaptive octree is combined with a nested constructive solid geometry （CSG） tree by this technique. The intersection handling is restricted to the cells in the octree where intersection actually occurs. Within those cells, a CSG tree template is instanced by the surfaces and the tree is converted to planebased binary space partitioning （BSP） for set evaluation; Moreover, the surface classification is restricted to the ceils in the octree where the surfaces only come from a model and are within the bounding-boxes of other polyhedrons. These two ways bring about the efficiency and scalability of the operations, in terms of runtime and memory. As all surfaces in such a cell have the same classification relation, they are classified as a whole. Robustness and exactness are achieved by integrating plane-based geometry representation with adaptive geometry predicate technique in intersection handling, and by applying divide-and-conquer arithmetic on surface classification. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed approach can guarantee the robustness of Boolean computations and runs faster than other existing approaches.展开更多
