Panelization Examples

     Panelization Example3

The following example shows panelization with twisted surfaces. A twisted surface is created by rotating some of control points around other control points.
The sample input file used in the example is below.

surface4.3dm

import processing.opengl.*;
import igeo.*;

size(480,360,IG.GL);

IG.open("surface4.3dm");
ISurface[] surfaces = IG.surfaces();

for(ISurface surf : surfaces){
  
  int unum = 20, vnum=20;
  double uinc = 1.0/unum, vinc = 1.0/vnum;
  for(int i=0; i < unum; i++){
    for(int j=0; j < vnum; j++){
      if( (i+j)%2== 0 ){
        
        IVec[][] pts = new IVec[2][4];
        
        pts[0][0] = surf.pt( i*uinc, j*vinc );
        pts[1][0] = surf.pt( (i+1)*uinc, j*vinc );
        pts[0][1] = surf.pt( i*uinc, (j+2.0/3)*vinc );
        pts[1][1] = surf.pt( (i+1)*uinc, (j+2.0/3)*vinc );
        pts[0][2] = surf.pt( i*uinc, (j+4.0/3)*vinc );
        pts[1][2] = surf.pt( (i+1)*uinc, (j+4.0/3)*vinc );
        pts[0][3] = surf.pt( i*uinc, (j+2)*vinc );
        pts[1][3] = surf.pt( (i+1)*uinc, (j+2)*vinc );
        
        IVec rotAxis = pts[1][3].dif(pts[1][2]);
        
        // rotating around the center pts[1][2] and the axis rotAxis
        pts[0][2].rot(pts[1][2],rotAxis,-PI/2);
        // rotating around the center pts[1][3] and the axis rotAxis
        pts[0][3].rot(pts[1][3],rotAxis,-PI/2);
         
        new ISurface(pts, 1, 3);
      }       
    }
  }
  surf.del();  
}

Then the rotation angle is randomized.

import processing.opengl.*;
import igeo.*;

size(480,360,IG.GL);

IG.open("surface4.3dm");
ISurface[] surfaces = IG.surfaces();

for(ISurface surf : surfaces){
  
  int unum = 20, vnum=20;
  double uinc = 1.0/unum, vinc = 1.0/vnum;
  for(int i=0; i < unum; i++){
    double maxAngle = IRandom.get(0, PI*2/3);
    for(int j=0; j < vnum; j++){
      if( (i+j)%2== 0 ){
        
        IVec[][] pts = new IVec[2][4];
        
        pts[0][0] = surf.pt( i*uinc, j*vinc );
        pts[1][0] = surf.pt( (i+1)*uinc, j*vinc );
        pts[0][1] = surf.pt( i*uinc, (j+2.0/3)*vinc );
        pts[1][1] = surf.pt( (i+1)*uinc, (j+2.0/3)*vinc );
        pts[0][2] = surf.pt( i*uinc, (j+4.0/3)*vinc );
        pts[1][2] = surf.pt( (i+1)*uinc, (j+4.0/3)*vinc );
        pts[0][3] = surf.pt( i*uinc, (j+2)*vinc );
        pts[1][3] = surf.pt( (i+1)*uinc, (j+2)*vinc );
        
        IVec rotAxis = pts[1][3].dif(pts[1][2]);
        
        // rotating around the center pts[1][2] and the axis rotAxis
        pts[0][2].rot(pts[1][2],rotAxis,-maxAngle*j*vinc);
        // rotating around the center pts[1][3] and the axis rotAxis
        pts[0][3].rot(pts[1][3],rotAxis,-maxAngle*j*vinc);
         
        new ISurface(pts, 1, 3).clr(0,maxAngle/PI,0);
      }       
    }
  }
  surf.del();
}
