VLFLofrangez

by Tim C. Lueth, SG-Lib Toolbox: SolidGeometry 5.6 - Analyzing function
Introduced first in SolidGeometry 1.0, Creation date: 2012-04-11, Last change: 2025-09-14

returns a reduced facet list and resorted vertex list for all facets of a specified plane

Description

This procedure reduces the facet list to those facets that cross or touch a defined z-plane. In addition, the vertex list is sorted by z, x, y. The procedure is used for accelerating the VLELsclicer. In this case z2=z1 always.

Syntax

[RVL,RFL]=VLFLofrangez(VL,FL,[z1,z2,sname])

Input Parameter

VL: Original vertex list
FL: Original facet list
z1: z coordinate of the slice
z2: second z-coordinate, default is z1
sname: optional name for generating a printed protocol

Output Parameter

RVL: Reduced and sorted vertex list (z)
RFL: Reduced and sorted facet list (index)
