abstract = {Fully automated conversion from CAD geometries directly
into their ROOT geometry equivalents is a topic of wide
interest in particle physics experiment communities for some
time. Tessellation of the surface of an intricate geometry
is a powerful approach towards this goal, by potentially
providing a shared geometrical representation with very good
convergence even for the case of complex geometries.
However, using tessellated geometries also requires
significant computational effort for particle tracking
inside and through tessellated objects.In this paper, we
first discuss the experiment and the methodology involved in
tessellation and conversion. We report on the application
and first experience of using two different software
approaches. The two tools, VecGeom and TGeoArbN, were used
for simulation of the same tessellated subdetector
component. Our observations in this simulation with respect
to obtained results and simulation speed are reported along
with our general observation about the handling of these
tools.},
