component.engine.VolumeFromTetrahedrons

The VolumeFromTetrahedrons component computes the volume of a given volumetric mesh (tetrahedrons or/and hexahedrons). In this directory you will find one example showing how to use the component:

• Finger.pyscn

Example

finger = rootNode.createChild('finger')

# Create the popology
finger.createObject('MeshVTKLoader', name='loader', filename=path+'finger.vtk')
finger.createObject('TetrahedronSetTopologyContainer', src='@loader', name='container')
finger.createObject('TetrahedronSetTopologyModifier')

finger.createObject('VolumeFromTetrahedrons')
