Detailed Description

Generate Boy's surface.

vtkParametricBoy generates Boy's surface. This is a Model of the projective plane without singularities. It was found by Werner Boy on assignment from David Hilbert.

For further information about this surface, please consult the technical description "Parametric surfaces" in http://www.vtk.org/documents.php in the "VTK Technical Documents" section in the VTk.org web pages.

Thanks:

Andrew Maclean a.mac.nosp@m.lean.nosp@m.@cas..nosp@m.edu..nosp@m.au for creating and contributing the class.

Member Function Documentation

static int vtkParametricBoy::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 vtkParametricFunction.

virtual int vtkParametricBoy::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.

Reimplemented from vtkParametricFunction.

static vtkParametricBoy* vtkParametricBoy::SafeDownCast

(

vtkObjectBase *

o

)

[static]

Reimplemented from vtkParametricFunction.

virtual vtkObjectBase* vtkParametricBoy::NewInstanceInternal

(

)

const [protected, virtual]

Reimplemented from vtkParametricFunction.

vtkParametricBoy* vtkParametricBoy::NewInstance

(

)

const

Reimplemented from vtkParametricFunction.

void vtkParametricBoy::PrintSelf	(	ostream &	os,
		vtkIndent	indent
	)		[virtual]

Methods invoked by print to print information about the object including superclasses. Typically not called by the user (use Print() instead) but used in the hierarchical print process to combine the output of several classes.

Reimplemented from vtkParametricFunction.

static vtkParametricBoy* vtkParametricBoy::New

(

)

[static]

Construct Boy's surface with the following parameters: MinimumU = 0, MaximumU = Pi, MinimumV = 0, MaximumV = Pi, JoinU = 1, JoinV = 1, TwistU = 1, TwistV = 1; ClockwiseOrdering = 1, DerivativesAvailable = 1, ZScale = 0.125.

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

virtual int vtkParametricBoy::GetDimension

(

)

[inline, virtual]

Return the parametric dimension of the class.

Implements vtkParametricFunction.

Definition at line 55 of file vtkParametricBoy.h.

virtual void vtkParametricBoy::SetZScale

(

double

)

[virtual]

Set/Get the scale factor for the z-coordinate. Default = 1/8, giving a nice shape.

virtual double vtkParametricBoy::GetZScale

(

)

[virtual]

Set/Get the scale factor for the z-coordinate. Default = 1/8, giving a nice shape.

virtual void vtkParametricBoy::Evaluate	(	double	uvw[3],
		double	Pt[3],
		double	Duvw[9]
	)		[virtual]

Boy's surface. This function performs the mapping , returning it as Pt. It also returns the partial derivatives Du and Dv. . Then the normal is .

Implements vtkParametricFunction.

virtual double vtkParametricBoy::EvaluateScalar	(	double	uvw[3],
		double	Pt[3],
		double	Duvw[9]
	)		[virtual]

Calculate a user defined scalar using one or all of uvw, Pt, Duvw. uvw are the parameters with Pt being the the cartesian point, Duvw are the derivatives of this point with respect to u, v and w. Pt, Duvw are obtained from Evaluate(). This function is only called if the ScalarMode has the value vtkParametricFunctionSource::SCALAR_FUNCTION_DEFINED If the user does not need to calculate a scalar, then the instantiated function should return zero.

Implements vtkParametricFunction.
