mesh_conway_join

compas.datastructures.mesh_conway_join(mesh)[source]

Generates the join mesh from a seed mesh.

Parameters

mesh (Mesh) – A seed mesh

Returns

Mesh – The join mesh.

Examples

>>> from compas.datastructures import Mesh
>>> mesh = Mesh.from_polyhedron(6)
>>> join = mesh_conway_join(mesh)
>>> join.number_of_vertices() == mesh.number_of_vertices() + mesh.number_of_faces()
True
>>> join.number_of_edges() == 2 * mesh.number_of_edges()
True
>>> join.number_of_faces() == mesh.number_of_edges()
True
