VolMesh.halfface_flatness

VolMesh.halfface_flatness(face, maxdev=0.02)[source]

Compute the flatness of a face.

Parameters:

faceint: The identifier of the face.

Returns:

float: The flatness.

face_area(), face_aspect_ratio()

Notes

compas.geometry.mesh_flatness function currently only works for quadrilateral faces. This function uses the distance between each face vertex and its projected point on the best-fit plane of the face as the flatness metric.
