Such decomposition enables the manufacturing of individual parts using two-piece reusable rigid molds. Our decomposition strategy relies on a new energy formulation that utilizes a pre-computed signal on the mesh volume representing the accessibility for a predefined set of extraction directions. Thanks to this novel formulation, our method allows for efficient optimization of a fabrication-aware partitioning of volumes in a completely\r\nautomatic way. We demonstrate the efficacy of our approach by generating valid volume partitionings for a wide range of complex objects and physically reproducing several of them.","lang":"eng"}],"department":[{"_id":"BeBi"}],"oa_version":"Submitted Version","article_type":"original","status":"public","ec_funded":1,"has_accepted_license":"1","date_created":"2021-10-27T07:08:19Z","article_number":"272","type":"journal_article","citation":{"apa":"Alderighi, T., Malomo, L., Bickel, B., Cignoni, P., &#38; Pietroni, N.
