Description

Class for generating convex hulls with variable chordal size and aspect ratios.

By default uses constant distributions (all hulls are equally sized) but you can provide your distributions.

void chrono::particlefactory::ChRandomShapeCreatorConvexHulls::SetNpoints ( int mnpoints )

inline

Set the number of random vertexes used to generate each random convex hull.

Note that the final number of vertexes in the hull might be lower since random points that fall inside the convex hull are not used.
