Hello everyone,

Does an utility exists to split a cell which is cut by a surface?
Actually, what I'm interested about is the volume left on each side.


I currently have identified which cells/faces/edges are "cut" by my surface (using mainly cellClassification). I still need to compute the volumes on each side of the triSurface, but I have to admit, I have not clue on how to do that.

Is there an utility to do that? I would take any lead, or idea!



Thank you a lot for you help!
