hi Yajun,

do you mean that you have a triangle surface mesh represented eg as a
CGAL polyhedron?

if it is both boundary-free and intersection-free then yes - we are
working (hopefully for the next release) on an AABB tree component which
solves your problem.

would you be interested in testing the component now? I could send it to
you by email.
