Inner-Fit Polygon

Geometric primitive describing where a piece fits inside the stock boundary.

Also called: Inner-Fit Polygon · IFP · Inner-Fit Rectangle · 내부 적합 폴리곤

The primitive responsible for containment, one of the two geometric axes of irregular nesting (classified as a method in v1). The IFP encodes the region of reference-point positions for which a piece lies entirely inside the stock boundary, turning "does it fit inside the sheet?" into a point-location query. It pairs with the No-Fit Polygon, which handles piece-to-piece overlap; see Bennell & Oliveira (2008) for the standard account.
