Crate geomcore 

A pure, standalone geometric kernel for CAD-grade curves and surfaces.

geomcore provides parametric evaluation of elementary curves and surfaces (lines, circles, ellipses, parabolas, hyperbolas, B-splines; planes, cylinders, cones, spheres, tori, B-spline surfaces), rigid transformations, and analytic curve-on-surface parametrization: computing the exact 2D representation of a 3D curve in a surface’s parameter space wherever a closed form exists.

Namespace layout

• The crate root re-exports the placement and value types shared by everything else: Point3D/Point2D, Vector3D/Vector2D, Axis3D/Axis2D, Frame3D/Frame2D, and Transform.
• curves holds the 3D and 2D curve types (curves::Line3D, curves::Circle3D, curves::Ellipse3D, curves::Parabola3D, curves::Hyperbola3D, curves::BSplineCurve3D, curves::Line2D, curves::Circle2D), the curves::Curve3D/ curves::Curve2D enum adaptors, and the curves::ParametricCurve3D/curves::ParametricCurve2D traits.
• surfaces holds the five elementary analytic surfaces (surfaces::Plane, surfaces::Cylinder, surfaces::Cone, surfaces::Sphere, surfaces::Torus) plus surfaces::BSplineSurface, the surfaces::Surface enum adaptor, and the surfaces::ParametricSurface trait.

Quick start

use geomcore::{Cylinder, Point3D, Vector3D};
use geomcore::curves::Circle3D;

// Evaluate a circle at a single parameter, and over a batch of parameters.
let circle = Circle3D::new(Point3D::ORIGIN, Vector3D::Z, 2.0).unwrap();
let point = circle.eval_point(std::f64::consts::PI / 4.0);
let points = circle.eval_points(&[0.0, 1.0, 2.0]);
assert_eq!(points[0], circle.eval_point(0.0));

// Curve-on-surface parametrization: this circle is coaxial with the
// cylinder, so it has an exact 2D image, a horizontal line in (u, v).
let cylinder = Cylinder::new(Point3D::ORIGIN, Vector3D::Z, 2.0).unwrap();
let pcurve = circle.parametrize_on(&cylinder).unwrap();

Extending the kernel

New curve or surface types are added by implementing curves::ParametricCurve3D (or curves::ParametricCurve2D) and surfaces::ParametricSurface respectively, without touching the existing dispatch code in curves::Curve3D/surfaces::Surface.
