The Accurate Method for Computing the Minimum Distance between a Point and an Elliptical Torus

We present an accurate method to compute the minimum distance between a point and an elliptical torus, which is called the orthogonal projection problem. The basic idea is to transform a geometric problem into finding the unique real solution of a quartic equation, which is fit for orthogonal projec...
