econe2, econe3
ec2 = econe2(...) creates a surface eccentric cone geometry object, without
bottom and top faces, according to the arguments described for econe3. econe2 is
a subclass of gencyl2.
Eccentric cone objects have the following properties:
TABLE 1-15: ECCENTRIC CONE OBJECT PROPERTIES
PROPERTY
DESCRIPTION
a, b Semi-axes
r
h
rat
Radius
Height
Ratio
x, y, z, xyz Position of the object. Components and vector forms
ax2
ax3
rot
Rotational angle of symmetry axis
Axis of symmetry
Rotational angle
In addition, all 3D geometry object properties are available. All properties can be
accessed using the syntax get(object,property). See geom3 for details.
Compatibility
Examples
The FEMLAB 2.3 syntax is obsolete but still supported. The numbering of faces,
edges and vertices is different from the numbering in objects created in 2.3.
Create a truncated eccentric cone with the basis surface in the xy-plane.
e = econe2(10,40,20,0.5)
Create an eccentric cone with an apex, that is, a singular patch, on top.
e = econe3(1,2,4,0,'displ',[1,1],'pos',[100 100 100],...
'axis',[0 1 4],'rot',pi/4)
