Using Multistep Methods in Slicing 2 ½ Dimensional Parametric Surfaces for Additive Manufacturing Applications

: Parametric surfaces such as Bezier are commonly used in the industrial applications and academic research. In additive manufacturing, surfaces are constructed by layering. For this reason, a method is needed to slice the surfaces. In this paper, a new algorithm for slicing 2 ½ dimensional parametric surfaces is proposed by using a multistep method such as Adam Bashforth. The mean target of using the multistep methods is to increase the accuracy and efficiency of the procedure. In this paper, Adam Bashfoth 3 steps has been used to determine the best surface subdivision.
