SMLib SMLib Our flagship product built upon TSNLib provides fully functional non-manifold topological structure and solid modeling functionality including the ability to perform NURBS boolean operations, fillets, etc.
TSNLib TSNLib Built on top of GSNLib supporting trimmed surface representations.
GSNLib GSNLib A basic curve and surface NURBS library. GSNLib provides a useful interface to NLib while adding value as well. Includes curve/curve and surface/surface intersection and polygon modeling.
NLib NLib A comprehensive BSpline NURBs library fully supporting curves, surfaces, and volumes with an extensive set of shape query and construction tools.
VSLib VSLib Provides deformable modeling as part of a library using the constrained optimization techniques of the calculus of variations. The library supports several very different geometric operations.
SDLib SDLib Subdivision surface source code library that creates and modifies complex shapes with hierarchical Catmull-Clark surfaces.
PolyMLib PolyMLib Polygonal based geometric modeling to repair, optimize, review and edit triangle mesh models. Analyze surface properties, repair and optimize surface meshes.
Data Translators Data Translators NURBS based geometry translators to interface between Nlib, GSNLib, TSNLib, SMLib and IGES, STEP, SAT, VDAFS, OpenNURBS, and Parasolid XT.

| Solid Modeling Solutions Announces Version 6.5 |
|
Solid Modeling Solutions is pleased to announce SMLib Version 6.5. This is a maintenance release with a number of bug fixes, a number of new classes, and bug fixes for the data translators. Details can be found on www.smlib.com/Manual. New versions of TSNLib, GSNLib, and NLib are also available as proper subsets of SMLib. TSNLib contains all of the trimmed surface capabilities, but lacks the non-manifold topology and Boolean capabilities. GSNLib contains the general surface methods, but lacks the trimmed surface capabilities of TSNLib. NLib is the advanced NURBS kernel containing curve and surface functionality, which is based on "The NURBS Book" by Piegl and Tiller.

We are in the process of enhancing technical support, developing new capabilities, and adding a special emphasis on the quality and reliability of the software and our processes. You'll hear more on it over time as we implement a new configuration control mechanism and improved regression testing.
Please welcome George Celniker and Michael Lounsbery to our team. George is the founder of Advanced Geometry Concepts, earned a PhD from MIT in 1990 and has numerous patents, published papers, and presentations. George has defined technology and architecture for using geometric modeling to support GeoScience data analysis, was a development engineer in finite element modeling, and was a project manager in selecting and implementing new 3D CAD software. George will be working on support and enhancements to SMLib.
Michael Lounsbery is founder of SurfQuake, Inc. and earned a PhD from the University of Washington in 1994. Michael, and has papers published and presented in subdivision surfaces, wavelets, multiresolution polyhedra, and parametric surfacing methods. Michael was a senior researcher and primary developer at Alias of Maya's subdivision surface library and polygon mesh library, did prototype work in a surface reconstruction method from 3D points, a subdivision surface editor, a wavelet method to compress motion capture data, and a method to reparameterize a polygon mesh. He has several U.S. technology patents filed, and has special skills in in 3D geometry software development, modeling, games, and animation.
