Detailed Description

a cell that represents a triangle strip

vtkTriangleStrip is a concrete implementation of vtkCell to represent a 2D triangle strip. A triangle strip is a compact representation of triangles connected edge to edge in strip fashion. The connectivity of a triangle strip is three points defining an initial triangle, then for each additional triangle, a single point that, combined with the previous two points, defines the next triangle.

Create an object with Debug turned off, modified time initialized to zero, and reference counting on.

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

static int vtkTriangleStrip::IsTypeOf ( const char *  name) [static]

Return 1 if this class type is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class. Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkCell.

virtual int vtkTriangleStrip::IsA ( const char *  name) [virtual]

Return 1 if this class is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class. Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

) [virtual]

See the vtkCell API for descriptions of these methods.

Implements vtkCell.

int vtkTriangleStrip::EvaluatePosition ( double  x[3],
double closestPoint,
int subId,
double  pcoords[3],
double dist2,
double weights 
) [virtual]

Given a point x[3] return inside(=1), outside(=0) cell, or (-1) computational problem encountered; evaluate parametric coordinates, sub-cell id (!=0 only if cell is composite), distance squared of point x[3] to cell (in particular, the sub-cell indicated), closest point on cell to x[3] (unless closestPoint is null, in which case, the closest point and dist2 are not found), and interpolation weights in cell. (The number of weights is equal to the number of points defining the cell). Note: on rare occasions a -1 is returned from the method. This means that numerical error has occurred and all data returned from this method should be ignored. Also, inside/outside is determine parametrically. That is, a point is inside if it satisfies parametric limits. This can cause problems for cells of topological dimension 2 or less, since a point in 3D can project onto the cell within parametric limits but be "far" from the cell. Thus the value dist2 may be checked to determine true in/out.

Implements vtkCell.

void vtkTriangleStrip::EvaluateLocation ( int subId,
double  pcoords[3],
double  x[3],
double weights 
) [virtual]

Determine global coordinate (x[3]) from subId and parametric coordinates. Also returns interpolation weights. (The number of weights is equal to the number of points in the cell.)

Implements vtkCell.

int vtkTriangleStrip::IntersectWithLine ( double  p1[3],
double  p2[3],
double  tol,
double t,
double  x[3],
double  pcoords[3],
int subId 
) [virtual]

Intersect with a ray. Return parametric coordinates (both line and cell) and global intersection coordinates, given ray definition and tolerance. The method returns non-zero value if intersection occurs.

Implements vtkCell.

int vtkTriangleStrip::Triangulate ( int  index,
vtkIdList ptIds,
vtkPoints pts 
) [virtual]

Generate simplices of proper dimension. If cell is 3D, tetrahedron are generated; if 2D triangles; if 1D lines; if 0D points. The form of the output is a sequence of points, each n+1 points (where n is topological cell dimension) defining a simplex. The index is a parameter that controls which triangulation to use (if more than one is possible). If numerical degeneracy encountered, 0 is returned, otherwise 1 is returned. This method does not insert new points: all the points that define the simplices are the points that define the cell.

Implements vtkCell.

void vtkTriangleStrip::Derivatives ( int  subId,
double  pcoords[3],
double values,
int  dim,
double derivs 
) [virtual]

Compute derivatives given cell subId and parametric coordinates. The values array is a series of data value(s) at the cell points. There is a one-to-one correspondence between cell point and data value(s). Dim is the number of data values per cell point. Derivs are derivatives in the x-y-z coordinate directions for each data value. Thus, if computing derivatives for a scalar function in a hexahedron, dim=1, 8 values are supplied, and 3 deriv values are returned (i.e., derivatives in x-y-z directions). On the other hand, if computing derivatives of velocity (vx,vy,vz) dim=3, 24 values are supplied ((vx,vy,vz)1, (vx,vy,vz)2, ....()8), and 9 deriv values are returned ((d(vx)/dx),(d(vx)/dy),(d(vx)/dz), (d(vy)/dx),(d(vy)/dy), (d(vy)/dz), (d(vz)/dx),(d(vz)/dy),(d(vz)/dz)).

Implements vtkCell.

int vtkTriangleStrip::IsPrimaryCell ( ) [inline, virtual]

Return whether this cell type has a fixed topology or whether the topology varies depending on the data (e.g., vtkConvexPointSet). This compares to composite cells that are typically composed of primary cells (e.g., a triangle strip composite cell is made up of triangle primary cells).

Reimplemented from vtkCell.

Definition at line 80 of file vtkTriangleStrip.h.

Return the center of the point cloud in parametric coordinates.

Reimplemented from vtkCell.

static void vtkTriangleStrip::DecomposeStrip ( int  npts,
vtkIdType pts,
vtkCellArray tris 
) [static]

Given a triangle strip, decompose it into a list of (triangle) polygons. The polygons are appended to the end of the list of triangles.

virtual void vtkTriangleStrip::InterpolateFunctions ( double  pcoords[3],
double weights 
) [virtual]

Compute the interpolation functions/derivatives (aka shape functions/derivatives)

virtual void vtkTriangleStrip::InterpolateDerivs ( double  pcoords[3],
double derivs 
) [virtual]

Compute the interpolation functions/derivatives (aka shape functions/derivatives)
