class capytaine.bodies.predefined.rectangles.OpenRectangularParallelepiped(*args, **kwargs)[source]

Bases: RectangularParallelepiped

class capytaine.bodies.predefined.rectangles.Rectangle(size=(5.0, 5.0), resolution=(5, 5), center=(0, 0, 0), normal=(1, 0, 0), translational_symmetry=False, reflection_symmetry=False, name=None)[source]

Bases: FloatingBody

One-sided vertical rectangle (along y and z).

By default, the normals are oriented in the positive y direction.

Parameters:

  • size (couple of floats, optional) – dimensions of the rectangle (width and height)

  • resolution (couple of ints, optional) – number of faces along each of the two directions

  • center (3-ple of floats, optional) – position of the geometric center of the rectangle, default: (0, 0, 0)

  • normal (3-ple of floats, optional) – normal vector, default: along x axis

  • translational_symmetry (bool, optional) – if True, use the translation symmetry to speed up the computations

  • reflection_symmetry (bool, optional) – if True, use the reflection symmetry to speed up the computations

  • name (string, optional) – a name for the body

class capytaine.bodies.predefined.rectangles.RectangularParallelepiped(size=(1.0, 1.0, 1.0), resolution=(4, 4, 4), center=(0, 0, 0), top=True, bottom=True, reflection_symmetry=False, translational_symmetry=False, name=None)[source]

Bases: FloatingBody

Six rectangles forming a parallelepiped.

Parameters:

  • size (3-ple of floats, optional) – dimensions of the parallelepiped (width, thickness, height) for coordinates (x, y, z).

  • resolution (3-ple of ints, optional) – number of faces along the three directions

  • center (3-ple of floats, optional) – coordinates of the geometric center of the parallelepiped

  • top (bool, optional) – whether or not to close the parallelepiped on the top

  • bottom (bool, optional) – whether or not to close the parallelepiped on the bottom

  • reflection_symmetry (bool, optional) – use xOz and yOz symmetry plane to generate the mesh

  • translational_symmetry (bool, optional) – if True, use the translation symmetry in the x direction to speed up the computations. To use the translation symmetry in the y direction, create a x-symmetric body and then rotate it by pi/2.

  • name (string, optional) – a name for the body
