  bibo_abstract:
  - Molding is a popular mass production method, in which the initial expenses for
    the mold are offset by the low per-unit production cost. However, the physical
    fabrication constraints of the molding technique commonly restrict the shape of
    moldable objects. For a complex shape, a decomposition of the object into moldable
    parts is a common strategy to address these constraints, with plastic model kits
    being a popular and illustrative example. However, conducting such a decomposition
    requires considerable expertise, and it depends on the technical aspects of the
    fabrication technique, as well as aesthetic considerations. We present an interactive
    technique to create such decompositions for two-piece molding, in which each part
    of the object is cast between two rigid mold pieces. Given the surface description
    of an object, we decompose its thin-shell equivalent into moldable parts by first
    performing a coarse decomposition and then utilizing an active contour model for
    the boundaries between individual parts. Formulated as an optimization problem,
    the movement of the contours is guided by an energy reflecting fabrication constraints
    to ensure the moldability of each part. Simultaneously, the user is provided with
    editing capabilities to enforce aesthetic guidelines. Our interactive interface
    provides control of the contour positions by allowing, for example, the alignment
    of part boundaries with object features. Our technique enables a novel workflow,
    as it empowers novice users to explore the design space, and it generates fabrication-ready
    two-piece molds that can be used either for casting or industrial injection molding
    of free-form objects.@eng
