Abstract
A computer-implemented method is disclosed for creating three-dimensional (3D) variable resolution (VR) region geometries of a modeled object for use in a computer-implemented numerical simulation involving the modeled object. The computer-implemented method includes, inter alia, generating two-dimensional (2D) orthographic views of a 3D modeled object, and identifying edges of each of the 2D orthographic views with a computer-based ray casting method. The computer-based ray casting method includes, for each respective one of the 2D orthographic views, casting virtual rays from different directions toward the 2D orthographic view within a plane of the 2D orthograph view, and detecting an intersection point for each of the virtual rays with an edge of the 2D orthographic view.
