corresponding parting direction, the fragment f t is rearranged to the same mold piece region as the fragment f e.

As shown in Fig. 14, the fragment f e is obscured by other surfaces when viewed from infinity along direction −d3 . Thus, it is an exact fragment that only belongs to the mold piece associated with parting direction d5 . Conversely, f t is a tentative fragment that is visible in both directions −d3 and −d5 ; hence, it can belong to either mold pieces associated with d3 or d5 . However, the mold piece containing f e will pass through f t if it is withdrawn along direction d5 . Therefore, f t is rearranged into the same region as f e. To check whether a tentative fragment f t is passed  through  by the mold piece of the exact fragment f e, we create extrusion surfaces from edges of f e along the parting direction. If the interior
