SURFACE CONSTRUCTION METHODS ============================== .. _SURFACE_CONSTRUCTION_METHODS_: Surfaces describe the shape of simulated objects. Faces are constructed on the basis of surfaces that form solid bodies. In some cases surfaces act as reference objects to position other geometric model elements. All surface are :blue:`MbSurface` class inheritors, they are described in section :ref:`SURFACES `. The surfaces can be constructed by directly calling the corresponding constructors or using the methods described in this section. .. toctree:: subsections/EN/Elementary_Surface_Construction subsections/EN/NURBS_Surface_Construction subsections/EN/Construction_of_Extrusion_Surface subsections/EN/Construction_of_Revolution_Surface subsections/EN/Construction_of_Surface_Based_on_a_Curve_Grid subsections/EN/Construction_of_a_Surface_With_Arbitrary_Borders .. subsections/EN/Sweep_Surface_Construction subsections/EN/Surface_Construction_Based_on_a_Family_of_Curves subsections/EN/Construction_of_Ruled_Surfaces subsections/EN/Surface_Construction_Based_on_Three_Curves subsections/EN/Surface_Construction_Based_on_Four_Curves subsections/EN/Equidistant_Surface_Construction
