Shear

class compas.geometry.Shear(matrix=None)[source]

Bases: compas.geometry.transformations.transformation.Transformation

Create a shear transformation.

A point P is transformed by the shear matrix into P” such that the vector P-P” is parallel to the direction vector and its extent is given by the angle of P-P’-P”, where P’ is the orthogonal projection of P onto the shear plane.

Parameters

matrix (4x4 matrix-like, optional) – A 4x4 matrix (or similar) representing a shear transformation.

Raises

ValueError – If the default constructor is used, and the provided transformation matrix is not a shear matrix.

Examples
