CircularPlate.PFM
Description
This macro permits the creation of the points and the lines of a circular plate, i.e. of a cylinder. Indeed, the circumference of the plate is represented by a sequence of segments.
After the execution of this macro, in order to complete the construction, the user will have to build the faces and build the volume of the cylinder.
Input
- Axis of the XYZ1 coordinate system, which is perpendicular to the plate face, in other words, the axis along which the thickness of the circular plate is considered
- Value of the three coordinates, expressed in the XYZ1 coordinate system, of the centre of the cylinder
- Thickness and the radius of the circular plate, expressed in the length unit of the coordinate system
- Number of points which permit the construction of the segments approximating the circumference of the plate
Output
- Points of the curcular plate
- Lines of the circular plate
