Detailed Description

Convert polyhedral 3D mesh to mixed volume mesh.

This conversion tool is another type of extractor which takes a polyhedral volume mesh as input and produces a mixed volume mesh made up of a combination of tetrahedrons and pyramids compatible with the marching cube algorithm.

The following example shows how to convert a polyhedral volume mesh to a mixed volume mesh:

   MiPolyhedralToMixVolume* extract =
     MiPolyhedralToMixVolume::getNewInstance(mesh);
   const MeXVolumeMeshUnstructured tessMesh = extract->convert();

virtual const MeXVolumeMeshUnstructured& MiPolyhedralToMixVolumeExtract::convert

(

const MiCellFilterI *

cellFilter = NULL

)

[pure virtual]

Builds the topology and geometry of the mixed volume mesh.

virtual const MeXScalardSetI& MiPolyhedralToMixVolumeExtract::extractScalarSet

(

const MiScalardSetI &

inputSet

)

[pure virtual]

Extracts a scalar set from the original mesh. The scalars are mapped onto the current extracted mesh.

Parameters:

inputSet

The input scalar set defined on the original mesh.

Returns:

The output scalar set defined on the extracted mesh.

virtual const MeXVec3dSetI& MiPolyhedralToMixVolumeExtract::extractVec3Set

(

const MiVec3dSetI &

inputSet

)

[pure virtual]

Extracts a vector set from the original mesh. The vectors are mapped onto the current extracted mesh.

Parameters:

inputSet

The input vector set defined on the original mesh.

Returns:

The output vector set defined on the extracted mesh.

virtual const MeXVolumeMeshUnstructured& MiPolyhedralToMixVolumeExtract::getExtract

(

)

const [pure virtual]

Returns the result of the extraction as a mesh.

static MiPolyhedralToMixVolumeExtract* MiPolyhedralToMixVolumeExtract::getNewInstance	(	const MiVolumeMeshUnstructured &	mesh,
		bool	parallel = true
	)			[static]

Factory method returning a new instance of a class implementing this abstract class.

Parameters:

	mesh	The input mesh
	parallel	When true, tries to create an extract module using a parallel algorithm to speed up the extraction.

Note:

Only some of the extraction algorithms have a parallel implementation.
