Keywords: Jacobian, Newton-Raphson, Levenberg-Marquardt, Powell dog leg, Schur complements, sparse QR/Cholesky, and so on. The LLM can figure the rest out. Try it yourself!
I recommend Rust because the methods are old and most of the algorithms are already implemented by crates, you just have to wire them together. Like I said the hard part is the b-rep: you’re not going to find anything equivalent to Parasolid or ACIS in the literature or open source.
