Detailed Description

This class is an instance of the Geodesic generic class, specific to create a geodesic ellipse.

The geoEllipse is a flatten geosphere, looking like a flying saucer or a zeppelin (depending on the eccentricity factor).

Member Function Documentation

void Mesh_GeoEllipse::getFacePoints (  long  facenumber  )  [protected, virtual]

This function fills the mSphericPoints array with all the points of the face. The points are repositionned, to be on a spheric surface. Parameters: facenumber  The number of the face to analyze. Reimplemented from Geodesic.

void Mesh_GeoEllipse::getFacePoints_I (  long  facenumber  )  [protected]

This function fills the mSphericPoints array with all the points of the face. Given the polyhedron face number, this function calculate the Icosa face points and store them in an array. For Class I geoellipses.

void Mesh_GeoEllipse::getFacePoints_II (  long  facenumber  )  [protected]

This function fills the mSphericPoints array with all the points of the face. Given the polyhedron face number, this function calculate the Icosa face points and store them in an array. For Class II geoellipses.

double Mesh_GeoEllipse::root_E (  double  E, double  theta )  [protected]

This function calculates the root E theta correction. This function calculates the root E theta correction to even out elliptical edge length distributions.
