PLshaftrad

by Tim C. Lueth, SG-Lib Toolbox: SolidGeometry 5.6 - PL/Point Lists
Introduced first in SolidGeometry 5.1, Creation date: 2022-01-16, Last change: 2025-09-15

creates a PL for a contour for SGofCPLrot

Description

easier to understand function to create axles
for second parameter b see 3rd parameter of PLradialEdges

See Also: CPLmotorshaft , PLradialEdges

Example Illustration

missing image of PLshaftrad(r,d,b)

Syntax

PL=PLshaftrad([r,d,b])

Input Parameter

r: [r1 r2 r3 ....] radius
d: distances between steps
b: [radius breakrule] breaking the edges; default is [0.5 -1]

Output Parameter

PL: Point list of a shaft

Examples


PLshaftrad([1 2 1],[0 2 2],'',true); PL=ans; % RAMP
PLshaftrad([6 3 6],[10 2 10],[.5 -1]); PL=ans; % only concave
PLshaftrad([6 3 6],[10 2 10],[.5 +1]); PL=ans; % only convex
PLshaftrad([6 3 6],[10 2 10],[.5 0 ]); PL=ans; % both edges
PLshaftrad([6 3 6],[10 2 10],[0 0 ]); PL=ans; % no radial edges
PLshaftrad([6 3 6],[10 2 10],[.5 0]); PL=ans; pause(1); SGofCPLrot(PL) % create the solid
