weldx.geometry.DynamicBaseSegment#

class weldx.geometry.DynamicBaseSegment(series, max_coord=1, **kwargs)#

Segment class to define arbitrary lines using the SpatialSeries.

Initialize a DynamicBaseSegment.

Parameters:

  • series (Union[SpatialSeries, Quantity, DataArray, str, MathematicalExpression]) – A SpatialSeries that describes the trajectory of the shape segment. Alternatively, one can pass every other object that is valid as first argument to of the __init__ method of the SpatialSeries.

  • max_coord (float) – [only expression based SpatialSeries] The maximum coordinate value of the passed series dimension that specifies the position on the 2d line. The value defines the segments length by evaluating the expression on the interval [0, max_coord]

  • kwargs – A set of keyword arguments that will be forwarded to the __init__ method of the SpatialSeries in case the series parameter isn’t already a SpatialSeries.

Methods

get_points

Get an array of the points at the specified relative positions.

get_section_length

Get the length from the start of the segment to the passed relative position.

Attributes

length

Get the length of the segment.
