One of the advantages of the level-set method is that the curvature and the normal vector of the interface can be readily calculated from the level-set function. However, in cases where the level-set method is used to capture topological changes, the standard discretization techniques for the curvature and the normal vector do not work properly. This is because they are affected by the discontinuities of the signed-distance function half-way between two interfaces.
