Cone

class compas.geometry.Cone(circle, height, **kwargs)[source]

Bases: Shape

A cone is defined by a circle and a height.

Parameters

circle ([plane, radius] | compas.geometry.Circle) – The base circle of the cone.
height (float) – The height of the cone.

Attributes

plane (compas.geometry.Plane) – The plane of the cone.
circle (compas.geometry.Circle) – The circle of the cone.
center (compas.geometry.Point) – The center of the cone.
radius (float) – The radius of the cone.
height (float) – The height of the cone.
normal (compas.geometry.Vector, read-only) – The normal of the cone.
diameter (float, read-only) – The diameter of the cone.
area (float, read-only) – The surface area of the cone.
volume (float, read-only) – The volume of the cone.

Examples

>>> from compas.geometry import Plane
>>> from compas.geometry import Cone
>>> plane = Plane([0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 1])
>>> circle = Circle(plane, 5)
>>> cone = Cone(circle, 7)

Methods

`from_data`	Construct a cone from its data representation.

`from_json`	Construct an object from serialized data contained in a JSON file.
`from_jsonstring`	Construct an object from serialized data contained in a JSON string.
`to_data`	Convert an object to its native data representation.
`to_json`	Serialize the data representation of an object to a JSON file.
`to_jsonstring`	Serialize the data representation of an object to a JSON string.
`transformed`	Returns a transformed copy of this geometry.
`validate_data`	Validate the object's data against its data schema.
`validate_json`	Validate the object's data against its json schema.
