cylindrical¶
Module: core
Category: vec3dvaluator
Type string: "cylindrical"
Parameters¶
| Name | Description | Default | Units |
|---|---|---|---|
center |
center | {0,0,0} | [] |
axis |
axis | {0,0,1} | [] |
vector |
vector | {1,0,0} | [] |
Description¶
This valuator generates a unique vector in a cylindrical distribution.
The center parameter sets a point on the axis.
The axis parameter defines the orientation of the axis.
The vector parameter is a vector that will be transported around the axis.
The following example defines a fiber property using the cylindrical vector valuator.
<fiber type="cylindrical">
<center>0,0,0</center>
<axis>0,0,1</axis>
<vector>0,1,0</vector>
</fiber>
