__init__()#

Methods

`__init__`()
`beam_intersection`(start_point, direction)	Computes the length of the intersection between the shape and the beam starting at start_point and travelling in the direction direction.
`quadrature`(kind)	Returns quadrature points and weights for evaluating integrals over the shape.

Attributes

volume

Volume of the shape

abstract beam_intersection(start_point, direction)[source]#

Computes the length of the intersection between the shape and the beam starting at start_point and travelling in the direction direction.

Return type:: Variable

abstract quadrature(kind)[source]#

Returns quadrature points and weights for evaluating integrals over the shape. The method returns a tuple where the first entry is an array containing vectors representing points in the shape and the second entry is an array containing the weights associated with the points.

Parameters:: kind (Any) – if the shape supports different kinds of quadratures this argument denotes which one to use
Return type:: tuple[Variable, Variable]
