Model.vectorcreate_xproduct

Model.vectorcreate_xproduct(basenode, vector_a, vector_b, magnitude)

Creates a vector entity by using the cross product of two other vectors.

Parameters:

• basenode (Entity) – The object describing the node entity where the base of the result is located after it is created.

• vector_a (Entity) – The object describing the first vector entity.

• vector_b (Entity) – The object describing the second vector entity.

• magnitude (double) – Magnitude of resulting vector.

Example

Create a vector by use the cross product of vector with ID 2 and ID 3 , located at node with ID 1 and a magnitude of 3.0

import hm
import hm.entities as ent

model = hm.Model()

model.vectorcreate_xproduct(
    basenode=ent.Node(model, 1),
    vector_a=ent.Vector(model, 2),
    vector_b=ent.Vector(model, 3),
    magnitude=3.0,
)
