virtual

Get the edge specified by edgeId (range 0 to 2) and return that edge's coordinates.

Implements vtkCell.

◆ GetCellType()

int vtkTriangle::GetCellType ( )
inlinevirtual

See the vtkCell API for descriptions of these methods.

Implements vtkCell.

Definition at line 53 of file vtkTriangle.h.

◆ GetCellDimension()

int vtkTriangle::GetCellDimension ( )
inlinevirtual

Return the topological dimensional of the cell (0,1,2, or 3).

Implements vtkCell.

Definition at line 54 of file vtkTriangle.h.

◆ GetNumberOfEdges()

int vtkTriangle::GetNumberOfEdges ( )
inlinevirtual

Return the number of edges in the cell.

Implements vtkCell.

Definition at line 55 of file vtkTriangle.h.

◆ GetNumberOfFaces()

int vtkTriangle::GetNumberOfFaces ( )
inlinevirtual

Return the number of faces in the cell.

Implements vtkCell.

Definition at line 56 of file vtkTriangle.h.

◆ GetFace()

vtkCell* vtkTriangle::GetFace ( int  faceId)
inlinevirtual

Return the face cell from the faceId of the cell.

Implements vtkCell.

Definition at line 57 of file vtkTriangle.h.

◆ CellBoundary()

int vtkTriangle::CellBoundary ( int  subId,
double  pcoords[3],
vtkIdList pts 
)
virtual

Given parametric coordinates of a point, return the closest cell boundary, and whether the point is inside or outside of the cell. The cell boundary is defined by a list of points (pts) that specify a face (3D cell), edge (2D cell), or vertex (1D cell). If the return value of the method is != 0, then the point is inside the cell.

Implements vtkCell.

◆ Contour()

void vtkTriangle::Contour ( double  value,
vtkDataArray cellScalars,
vtkIncrementalPointLocator locator,
vtkCellArray verts,
vtkCellArray lines,
vtkCellArray polys,
vtkPointData inPd,
vtkPointData outPd,
vtkCellData inCd,
vtkIdType  cellId,
vtkCellData outCd 
)
virtual

Generate contouring primitives. The scalar list cellScalars are scalar values at each cell point. The point locator is essentially a points list that merges points as they are inserted (i.e., prevents duplicates). Contouring primitives can be vertices, lines, or polygons. It is possible to interpolate point data along the edge by providing input and output point data - if outPd is NULL, then no interpolation is performed. Also, if the output cell data is non-NULL, the cell data from the contoured cell is passed to the generated contouring primitives. (Note: the CopyAllocate() method must be invoked on both the output cell and point data. The cellId refers to the cell from which the cell data is copied.)

Implements vtkCell.

◆ EvaluatePosition()

int vtkTriangle::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.

◆ EvaluateLocation()

void vtkTriangle::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.

◆ Triangulate()

int vtkTriangle::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.

◆ Derivatives()

void vtkTriangle::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.

◆ GetParametricCoords()

virtual double* vtkTriangle::GetParametricCoords ( )
virtual

Return a contiguous array of parametric coordinates of the points defining this cell. In other words, (px,py,pz, px,py,pz, etc..) The coordinates are ordered consistent with the definition of the point ordering for the cell. This method returns a non-NULL pointer when the cell is a primary type (i.e., IsPrimaryCell() is true). Note that 3D parametric coordinates are returned no matter what the topological dimension of the cell.

Reimplemented from vtkCell.

◆ ComputeArea()

double vtkTriangle::ComputeArea ( )

A convenience function to compute the area of a vtkTriangle.

◆ Clip()

void vtkTriangle::Clip ( double  value,
vtkDataArray cellScalars,
vtkIncrementalPointLocator locator,
vtkCellArray polys,
vtkPointData inPd,
vtkPointData outPd,
vtkCellData inCd,
vtkIdType  cellId,
vtkCellData outCd,
int  insideOut 
)
virtual

Clip this triangle using scalar value provided. Like contouring, except that it cuts the triangle to produce other triangles.

Implements vtkCell.

◆ InterpolationFunctions()

static void vtkTriangle::InterpolationFunctions ( double  pcoords[3],
double  sf[3] 
)
static

◆ InterpolationDerivs()

static void vtkTriangle::InterpolationDerivs ( double  pcoords[3],
double  derivs[6] 
)
static
Deprecated:
Replaced by vtkTriangle::InterpolateDerivs as of VTK 5.2

◆ InterpolateFunctions()

virtual void vtkTriangle::InterpolateFunctions ( double  pcoords[3],
double  sf[3] 
)
inlinevirtual

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

Definition at line 96 of file vtkTriangle.h.

◆ InterpolateDerivs()

virtual void vtkTriangle::InterpolateDerivs ( double  pcoords[3],
double  derivs[6] 
)
inlinevirtual

Definition at line 100 of file vtkTriangle.h.

◆ GetEdgeArray()

int* vtkTriangle::GetEdgeArray ( int  edgeId)

Return the ids of the vertices defining edge (edgeId). Ids are related to the cell, not to the dataset.

◆ IntersectWithLine()

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

Plane intersection plus in/out test on triangle. The in/out test is performed using tol as the tolerance.

Implements vtkCell.

◆ GetParametricCenter()

int vtkTriangle::GetParametricCenter ( double  pcoords[3])
inlinevirtual

Return the center of the triangle in parametric coordinates.

Reimplemented from vtkCell.

Definition at line 218 of file vtkTriangle.h.

◆ GetParametricDistance()

double vtkTriangle::GetParametricDistance ( double  pcoords[3])
virtual

Return the distance of the parametric coordinate provided to the cell. If inside the cell, a distance of zero is returned.

Reimplemented from vtkCell.

◆ TriangleCenter()

void vtkTriangle::TriangleCenter ( double  p1[3],
double  p2[3],
double  p3[3],
double  center[3] 
)
inlinestatic

Compute the center of the triangle.

Definition at line 256 of file vtkTriangle.h.

◆ TriangleArea()

double vtkTriangle::TriangleArea ( double  p1[3],
double  p2[3],
double  p3[3] 
)
inlinestatic

Compute the area of a triangle in 3D. See also vtkTriangle::ComputeArea()

Definition at line 265 of file vtkTriangle.h.

◆ Circumcircle()

static double vtkTriangle::Circumcircle ( double  p1[2],
double  p2[2],
double  p3[2],
double  center[2] 
)
static

Compute the circumcenter (center[3]) and radius squared (method return value) of a triangle defined by the three points x1, x2, and x3. (Note that the coordinates are 2D. 3D points can be used but the z-component will be ignored.)

◆ BarycentricCoords()

static int vtkTriangle::BarycentricCoords ( double  x[2],
double  x1[2],
double  x2[2],
double  x3[2],
double  bcoords[3] 
)
static

Given a 2D point x[2], determine the barycentric coordinates of the point. Barycentric coordinates are a natural coordinate system for simplices that express a position as a linear combination of the vertices. For a triangle, there are three barycentric coordinates (because there are three vertices), and the sum of the coordinates must equal 1. If a point x is inside a simplex, then all three coordinates will be strictly positive. If two coordinates are zero (so the third =1), then the point x is on a vertex. If one coordinates are zero, the point x is on an edge. In this method, you must specify the vertex coordinates x1->x3. Returns 0 if triangle is degenerate.

◆ ProjectTo2D()

static int vtkTriangle::ProjectTo2D ( double  x1[3],
double  x2[3],
double  x3[3],
double  v1[2],
double  v2[2],
double  v3[2] 
)
static

Project triangle defined in 3D to 2D coordinates. Returns 0 if degenerate triangle; non-zero value otherwise. Input points are x1->x3; output 2D points are v1->v3.

◆ ComputeNormal() [1/2]

static void vtkTriangle::ComputeNormal ( vtkPoints p,
int  numPts,
vtkIdType pts,
double  n[3] 
)
static

Compute the triangle normal from a points list, and a list of point ids that index into the points list.

◆ ComputeNormal() [2/2]

void vtkTriangle::ComputeNormal ( double  v1[3],
double  v2[3],
double  v3[3],
double  n[3] 
)
inlinestatic

Compute the triangle normal from three points.

Definition at line 240 of file vtkTriangle.h.

◆ ComputeNormalDirection()

void vtkTriangle::ComputeNormalDirection ( double  v1[3],
double  v2[3],
double  v3[3],
double  n[3] 
)
inlinestatic

Compute the (unnormalized) triangle normal direction from three points.

Definition at line 225 of file vtkTriangle.h.

◆ PointInTriangle()

static int vtkTriangle::PointInTriangle ( double  x[3],
double  x1[3],
double  x2[3],
double  x3[3],
double  tol2 
)
static

Given a point x, determine whether it is inside (within the tolerance squared, tol2) the triangle defined by the three coordinate values p1, p2, p3. Method is via comparing dot products. (Note: in current implementation the tolerance only works in the neighborhood of the three vertices of the triangle.

◆ ComputeQuadric() [1/2]

double  x2[3],
double  x3[3],
