4.2.510 Surface

A Surface is a set of mathematical points which is the image of a continuous function defined over a connected subset of the plane R2. It can be envisioned as a set of connected points in 3-dimensional space which is always locally 2-dimensional, but need not be manifold.

NOTE In the context of UoF G8 the Surface includes the concept of composite surfaces.

A Surface is a type of Detailed_geometric_model_element.

Each Surface is an Offset_surface, a Spherical_surface, a Trimmed_surface, a B_spline_surface, a Surface_of_linear_extrusion, a Toroidal_surface, a Surface_of_revolution, a Plane, a Cylindrical_surface, or a Conical_surface.
