SurfaceEvaluator.getParamAnomaly Method

Gets details about anomalies in parameter space of the surface. This includes information about periodic intervals, singularities, or unbounded parameter ranges.

Syntax

Python
C++

"surfaceEvaluator_var" is a variable referencing a SurfaceEvaluator object.

(returnValue, periodicityU, periodicityV, singularitiesU, singularitiesV, unboundedParameters) = surfaceEvaluator_var.getParamAnomaly()


#include <Core/Geometry/SurfaceEvaluator.h

// Declare the output arguments.
double[] periodicityU;
double[] periodicityV;
double[] singularitiesU;
double[] singularitiesV;
boolean[] unboundedParameters;
boolean returnValue = surfaceEvaluator_var->getParamAnomaly(periodicityU, periodicityV, singularitiesU, singularitiesV, unboundedParameters);

Parameters

periodicityU

double[]

The output array with information about the period of the surface in U. periodicityU[0] will contain the period of the surface in U. If periodicityU[0] is 0, the surface is not periodic in U. If the surface is periodic in U, peridocityU[1] will contain the parameter value at the start of the principle period.

periodicityV

double[]

The output array with information about the period of the surface in V. periodicityV[0] will contain the period of the surface in V. If periodicityV[0] is 0, the surface is not periodic in V. If the surface is periodic in V, peridocityV[1] will contain the parameter value at the start of the principle period.

singularitiesU

double[]

The output array parameter values of singularities in U. If this array is empty, there are no singularities in U.

singularitiesV

double[]

The output array parameter values of singularities in V. If this array is empty, there are no singularities in V.

unboundedParameters

boolean[]

The output array that indicates if the parameter range is unbounded in U or V. unboundedParameters[0] will be true if U is unbounded. unboundedParameters[1] will be true if V is unbounded.

Type	Description
boolean	Returns true if the parameter anomalies were successfully returned.

Name	Type	Description
periodicityU	double[]	The output array with information about the period of the surface in U. periodicityU[0] will contain the period of the surface in U. If periodicityU[0] is 0, the surface is not periodic in U. If the surface is periodic in U, peridocityU[1] will contain the parameter value at the start of the principle period.
periodicityV	double[]	The output array with information about the period of the surface in V. periodicityV[0] will contain the period of the surface in V. If periodicityV[0] is 0, the surface is not periodic in V. If the surface is periodic in V, peridocityV[1] will contain the parameter value at the start of the principle period.
singularitiesU	double[]	The output array parameter values of singularities in U. If this array is empty, there are no singularities in U.
singularitiesV	double[]	The output array parameter values of singularities in V. If this array is empty, there are no singularities in V.
unboundedParameters	boolean[]	The output array that indicates if the parameter range is unbounded in U or V. unboundedParameters[0] will be true if U is unbounded. unboundedParameters[1] will be true if V is unbounded.
