Syntax

[indAngles]=patchPathAngles(F,V,ind,isClosedLoop);

Description

The patchPathAngles function computes the angles between adjacent edges on a curve on a patch.

Examples

Example 1: Get angles on a closed path defined on the the boundary of a patch

Create test data set

w=1;
[X,Y]=ndgrid(linspace(0,w,15));
Z=ones(size(X));
C=tril(Z);
[F,V,C]=surf2patch(X,Y,Z,C);
C=vertexToFaceMeasure(F,C)>0;

logicKeep=C>0;
F=F(logicKeep,:);
C=C(logicKeep,:);
[F,V]=patchCleanUnused(F,V);

Get boundary curve

Eb=patchBoundary(F,V);
indBoundaryCurve=edgeListToCurve(Eb);
indBoundaryCurve=indBoundaryCurve(1:end-1)'; %Start=End for closed curve so remove double entry

Calculate mesh path angles

isClosedPath=1;
[A]=patchPathAngles(F,V,indBoundaryCurve,isClosedPath);

A=180*(A./pi); % Conver to degrees

% Display unique angles in set
unique(A)

ans =

    90
   180
   270

cFigure; hold on;
gpatch(F,V,'kw');
plotV(V(indBoundaryCurve,:),'k-','LineWidth',3);
scatterV(V(indBoundaryCurve,:),75,A,'filled');
colormap gjet; colorbar; caxis([0 360]);
axisGeom; view(2);
drawnow;

Example 2: Study angles for altered shape

V(:,1)=V(:,1)-V(:,2);

Calculate mesh path angles

isClosedPath=1;
[A]=patchPathAngles(F,V,indBoundaryCurve,isClosedPath);

A=180*(A./pi); % Conver to degrees

% Display unique angles in set
unique(A)

ans =

    45
   180
   225
   315

cFigure; hold on;
gpatch(F,V,'kw');
plotV(V(indBoundaryCurve,:),'k-','LineWidth',3);
scatterV(V(indBoundaryCurve,:),75,A,'filled');
colormap gjet; colorbar; caxis([0 360]);
axisGeom; view(2);
drawnow;

Example 3: Get angles on a non-closed path defined on the the boundary of a patch

Create path segment

indBoundaryCurve=indBoundaryCurve(1:6);

Calculate mesh path angles

isClosedPath=0;
[A]=patchPathAngles(F,V,indBoundaryCurve,isClosedPath);

A=180*(A./pi); % Conver to degrees

% Display unique angles in set
unique(A(~isnan(A)))

ans =

    45
   180
   225
   315

cFigure; hold on;
gpatch(F,V,'kw');
plotV(V(indBoundaryCurve,:),'k-','LineWidth',3);
scatterV(V(indBoundaryCurve,:),75,A,'filled');
colormap gjet; colorbar; caxis([0 360]);
axisGeom; view(2);
drawnow;
