## Class PgTube

- java.lang.Object
- - jv.object.PsObject
  - - jv.project.PgGeometry
    - - jv.geom.PgPointSet
      - - jv.geom.PgElementSet
        - - jvx.curve.PgTube

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Cloneable, PsUpdateIf, PgGeometryIf

      public class PgTube
      extends PgElementSet

  Class generates a tube either around a given polygon or around edges of an elementSet. In case of polygons tube is generated e.g. by parallel translating a frame. It requires an existing polygon of class `PgPolygon` and produces a tube which is a subclass of `PgElementSet`. In case of element sets tube is generated by using vertex normals.

  Note: Currently, the dimension of vertices of tube and of base geometry must be 3.

    - #### computeTube

          public void computeTube()

      Recompute the tube after configuration parameters of the tube have been changed. Method assumes that base geometries have not changed.

    - #### generateFrames

          public PgFrame[] generateFrames()

      Parallel translate a frame along the polygon and store one frame per polygon vertex. This methods must be called whenever the geometry or discretization of the polygon changes. Currently, this method is automatically invoked by PgTube#update.

      Method ignores edges of length 0, therefore, the number of returned frames may be different than the number of vertices.

      The returned frames are later used by method PgTube#generateTube().

      Returns:
        array of frames, one frame for each geometric polygon vertex
      See Also:
        `generateTube()`, `PgFrame`

    - #### generatePolygonSetFrames

          public PgFrame[] generatePolygonSetFrames()

      Parallel translate a frame along the polygons of a polygonSet and store one frame per polygon vertex. This methods must be called whenever the geometry or discretization of the polygonSet changes. Currently, this method is automatically invoked by PgTube#update.

      Method ignores edges of length 0, therefore, the number of returned frames may be different than the number of vertices.

      The returned frames are later used by method PgTube#generateTube().

      Returns:
        array of frames, one frame for each polygon vertex
      See Also:
        `generateTube()`, `PgFrame`

    - #### generateTube

          public void generateTube()

      Make tube around polygon using array of previously computed frames and instance variables m_discr and m_thickness.

      Method `generateFrames()` must be called prior to this method.

      See Also:
        `getDiscr()`, `getThickness()`, `generateFrames()`

    - #### generateThickEdges

          public void generateThickEdges()

      Make tube around edges of elementSet using instance variables m_disr and m_thickness. Vertex and element normals are recomputed.
      See Also:
        `getDiscr()`, `getThickness()`
