TrimmedCurve

class ansys.geometry.core.shapes.curves.trimmed_curve.TrimmedCurve(geometry: ansys.geometry.core.shapes.curves.curve.Curve, start: ansys.geometry.core.math.point.Point3D, end: ansys.geometry.core.math.point.Point3D, interval: ansys.geometry.core.shapes.parameterization.Interval, length: pint.Quantity, grpc_client: ansys.geometry.core.connection.client.GrpcClient = None)

Represents a trimmed curve.

A trimmed curve is a curve that has a boundary. This boundary comes in the form of an interval.

Parameters:

geometryCurve

Underlying mathematical representation of the curve.

startPoint3D

Start point of the curve.

endPoint3D

End point of the curve.

intervalInterval

Parametric interval that bounds the curve.

lengthQuantity

Length of the curve.

grpc_clientGrpcClient, default: None

gRPC client that is required for advanced functions such as intersect_curve().

Overview

Methods

evaluate_proportion	Evaluate the curve at a proportional value.
intersect_curve	Get the intersect points of this trimmed curve with another one.

Properties

geometry	Underlying mathematical curve.
start	Start point of the curve.
end	End point of the curve.
length	Calculated length of the edge.
interval	Interval of the curve that provides its boundary.

Special methods

__repr__

Represent the trimmed curve as a string.

Import detail

from ansys.geometry.core.shapes.curves.trimmed_curve import TrimmedCurve

Property detail

property TrimmedCurve.geometry: ansys.geometry.core.shapes.curves.curve.Curve

Underlying mathematical curve.

property TrimmedCurve.start: ansys.geometry.core.math.point.Point3D

Start point of the curve.

property TrimmedCurve.end: ansys.geometry.core.math.point.Point3D

End point of the curve.

property TrimmedCurve.length: pint.Quantity

Calculated length of the edge.

property TrimmedCurve.interval: ansys.geometry.core.shapes.parameterization.Interval

Interval of the curve that provides its boundary.

Method detail

TrimmedCurve.evaluate_proportion(param: ansys.geometry.core.typing.Real) → ansys.geometry.core.shapes.curves.curve_evaluation.CurveEvaluation

Evaluate the curve at a proportional value.

A parameter of 0 corresponds to the start of the curve, while a parameter of 1 corresponds to the end of the curve.

Parameters:

paramReal

Parameter in the proportional range [0,1].

Returns:

CurveEvaluation

Resulting curve evaluation.

TrimmedCurve.intersect_curve(other: TrimmedCurve) → list[ansys.geometry.core.math.point.Point3D]

Get the intersect points of this trimmed curve with another one.

If the two trimmed curves do not intersect, an empty list is returned.

Parameters:

otherTrimmedCurve

Trimmed curve to intersect with.

Returns:

list[Point3D]

All points of intersection between the curves.

TrimmedCurve.__repr__() → str

Represent the trimmed curve as a string.
