The horn [ 8 ] is represented by the following equations.
x = (a + u cos(v)) sin(b pi u) |
3-147 |
|
y = (a + u cos(v)) cos(b pi u) + cu |
3-148 |
|
z = u sin(v) |
3-149 |
The constants a, b and c determine the appearance of the figure.
To represent the area, the two parameters u and v can assume the following values (domain of definition), for example.
u is an element from the set of numbers [0, 1] |
||
v is an element from the number set [-pi, pi] |
The domain of definition cannot be changed in the plugin.
The plugin creates an optimized mesh without duplicate points and unconnected polygons.
