Programming a Module that Smooths the Edges of a Structure

Abstract

Often, idealizations which are assumed in computational models turn out to deviate tangibly from reality. One such example is the design of a microstructure with sharp borders in the etched structure: fabrication techniques cannot achieve a perfectly sharp wall, and produce more rounded edges instead.

This programmable module is designed to be applied to the sharp result of a designed structure, and it will round off the edges according to user-specified values, in order for a more realistic structure to be analyzed.
