VoronoiMesh with boundary edges removed

I would like to create a Voronoi diagram without the boundary edges highlighted. This code gVD = VoronoiMesh[X, MeshCellStyle -> {{1, All} -> {Thick, Red}}] produces the 1st image [left/top] (X is my …

RegionMember[ ] in polygon

Bug introduced in 10.0 and fixed in 12.0. I am seeing a difference in RegionMember[ ] testing a point inside a 3-vertex polygon and testing a point inside a more complex polygon: poly1 = {{0, 0}, …

RegionIntersection puzzle

I am using RegionIntersection[] to intersect two rectangles, phrased as Polygon[]s: RegionIntersection[] returns an incorrect result (the green region above; detail below), and issues a series of e …

Can one use MeshRefinementFunction to obtain a nonobtuse triangulation?

I have a planar convex polygonal region Rc. I would like to triangulate it such that every triangle is nonobtuse. I was hoping that the MeshRefinementFunction option would indeed "refine the simplex" …

Are the triangles in DelaunayMesh oriented ccw?

MeshCells[R, 2] returns the triangles from R=DelaunayMesh[pts], where pts is a list of 2D points. My (limited) experiments indicate the triangle vertices are listed in counterclockwise order, which is …

Clean & efficient bounding box non-intersection test

I would like a quick test to tell me that segments $ab$ and $cd$ cannot intersect in the plane. If the maximum $x$-coordinate of $a$ and $b$ is less than the minimum $x$-coordinate of $c$ and $d$, the …

Insphere for Irregular Tetrahedron

I am looking for existing Mathematica code to compute the unique sphere inscribed inside an irregular tetrahedron. I can write it myself, but I would love to find that someone already performed this c …
