ReversedTrimmedSurface

class ansys.geometry.core.shapes.surfaces.trimmed_surface.ReversedTrimmedSurface(geometry: ansys.geometry.core.shapes.surfaces.surface.Surface, box_uv: ansys.geometry.core.shapes.box_uv.BoxUV)

Bases: TrimmedSurface

Represents a reversed trimmed surface.

When a surface is reversed, its normal vector is negated to provide the proper outward facing vector.

Parameters:

faceFace

Face that the trimmed surface belongs to.

geometrySurface

Underlying mathematical representation of the surface.

Overview

Methods

normal	Provide the normal to the surface.
project_point	Project a point onto the surface and evaluate it at that location.

Method detail

ReversedTrimmedSurface.normal(u: ansys.geometry.core.typing.Real, v: ansys.geometry.core.typing.Real) → ansys.geometry.core.math.vector.UnitVector3D

Provide the normal to the surface.

Parameters:

uReal

First coordinate of the 2D representation of a surface in UV space.

vReal

Second coordinate of the 2D representation of a surface in UV space.

Returns:

UnitVector3D

Unit vector is normal to the surface at the given UV coordinates.

ReversedTrimmedSurface.project_point(point: ansys.geometry.core.math.point.Point3D) → ansys.geometry.core.shapes.surfaces.surface_evaluation.SurfaceEvaluation

Project a point onto the surface and evaluate it at that location.

Parameters:

pointPoint3D

Point to project onto the surface.

Returns:

SurfaceEvaluation

Resulting evaluation.
