◆ AddTriangle()

bool chrono::ChConvexDecompositionHACD::AddTriangle ( const ChVector3d v1,
const ChVector3d v2,
const ChVector3d v3 
)
virtual

Add a triangle, by passing three points for vertexes.

Note: the vertexes must be properly ordered (oriented triangle, normal pointing outside)

Implements chrono::ChConvexDecomposition.

◆ AddTriangleMesh()

bool chrono::ChConvexDecompositionHACD::AddTriangleMesh ( const ChTriangleMesh tm)
virtual

Add a triangle, by passing a ChTriangle object (that will be copied, not referenced).

Note: the vertexes must be properly ordered (oriented triangle, normal pointing outside) Add a triangle mesh soup, by passing an entire ChTriangleMesh object. Note 1: the triangle mesh does not need connectivity information (a basic 'triangle soup' is enough) Note 2: all vertexes must be properly ordered (oriented triangles, normals pointing outside). Note 3: the triangles must define closed volumes (holes, gaps in edges, etc. may trouble the decomposition)

Reimplemented from chrono::ChConvexDecomposition.

◆ ComputeConvexDecomposition()

int chrono::ChConvexDecompositionHACD::ComputeConvexDecomposition ( )
virtual

Perform the convex decomposition.

This operation is time consuming, and it may take a while to complete. Quality of the results can depend a lot on the parameters. Also, meshes with triangles that are not well oriented (normals always pointing outside) or with gaps/holes, may give wrong results.

Implements chrono::ChConvexDecomposition.

◆ SetParameters()

void chrono::ChConvexDecompositionHACD::SetParameters ( unsigned int  nClusters = 2,
unsigned int  targetDecimation = 0,
double  smallClusterThreshold = 0.25,
bool  addFacesPoints = false,
bool  addExtraDistPoints = false,
double  concavity = 100.0,
double  ccConnectDist = 30,
double  volumeWeight = 0.0,
double  compacityAlpha = 0.1,
unsigned int  nVerticesPerCH = 50 
)

Set the parameters for this convex decomposition algorithm.

Use this function before calling ComputeConvexDecomposition().

Parameters
nClustersMinimum number of clusters
targetDecimationIf 0 no decimation, otherwise n.of vertexes in decimated mesh
smallClusterThresholdThreshold for small cluster grouping
addFacesPointsAdd points in faces in concavity
addExtraDistPointsAdd extra points in concavity
concavityMax allowed concavity
ccConnectDistMax allowed distance for cc to be connected
volumeWeight'beta' parameter, ie. volume weight
compacityAlpha'alpha' paramater
nVerticesPerCHMax vertices for cc.

◆ WriteConvexHullsAsWavefrontObj()

void chrono::ChConvexDecompositionHACD::WriteConvexHullsAsWavefrontObj ( std::ostream &  mstream)
virtual

Save the computed convex hulls as a Wavefront file using the '.obj' fileformat, with each hull as a separate group.

May throw exceptions if file locked etc.

Implements chrono::ChConvexDecomposition.
