Detailed Description

implicit function for a Superquadric

vtkSuperquadric computes the implicit function and function gradient for a superquadric. vtkSuperquadric is a concrete implementation of vtkImplicitFunction. The superquadric is centered at Center and axes of rotation is along the y-axis. (Use the superclass' vtkImplicitFunction transformation matrix if necessary to reposition.) Roundness parameters (PhiRoundness and ThetaRoundness) control the shape of the superquadric. The Toroidal boolean controls whether a toroidal superquadric is produced. If so, the Thickness parameter controls the thickness of the toroid: 0 is the thinnest allowable toroid, and 1 has a minimum sized hole. The Scale parameters allow the superquadric to be scaled in x, y, and z (normal vectors are correctly generated in any case). The Size parameter controls size of the superquadric.

This code is based on "Rigid physically based superquadrics", A. H. Barr, in "Graphics Gems III", David Kirk, ed., Academic Press, 1992.

Warning:
The Size and Thickness parameters control coefficients of superquadric generation, and may do not exactly describe the size of the superquadric.

Member Function Documentation

static vtkSuperquadric* vtkSuperquadric::New (  )  [static]

Construct with superquadric radius of 0.5, toroidal off, center at 0.0, scale (1,1,1), size 0.5, phi roundness 1.0, and theta roundness 0.0.

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

virtual const char* vtkSuperquadric::GetClassName (  )  [virtual]

Reimplemented from vtkImplicitFunction.

static int vtkSuperquadric::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 vtkTypeRevisionMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkImplicitFunction.

virtual int vtkSuperquadric::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 vtkTypeRevisionMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkImplicitFunction.

static vtkSuperquadric* vtkSuperquadric::SafeDownCast ( vtkObject o  )  [static]

Reimplemented from vtkImplicitFunction.

void vtkSuperquadric::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 vtkImplicitFunction.

double vtkSuperquadric::EvaluateFunction ( double  x[3]  )  [virtual]

Evaluate function at position x-y-z and return value. You should generally not call this method directly, you should use FunctionValue() instead. This method must be implemented by any derived class.

Implements vtkImplicitFunction.

double vtkSuperquadric::EvaluateFunction ( double  x,
double  y,
double  z 
) [inline]

Evaluate function at position x-y-z and return value. You should generally not call this method directly, you should use FunctionValue() instead. This method must be implemented by any derived class.

void vtkSuperquadric::EvaluateGradient ( double  x[3],
double  g[3] 
) [virtual]

Evaluate function gradient at position x-y-z and pass back vector. You should generally not call this method directly, you should use FunctionGradient() instead. This method must be implemented by any derived class.
