swplot.icomesh

creates mesh by subdividing icosahedron faces

Syntax

TR = swplot.icomesh(nMesh)

Description

TR = swplot.icomesh(nMesh) outputs a triangulation that is generated by subdividing icosahedron faces. The triangulation will contain $20\cdot 4^n$ (where $n=n_{mesh}$ ) triangular faces. The output can be plotted using the trimesh function.

Examples

This example shows how to create and plot the icosahedron.

TR = swplot.icomesh
trimesh(TR)

Input Arguments

nMesh: Number of subdivisions. Default value is 0, when the function returns the icosahedron.

Output Arguments

TR: Triangulation class object for plotting with trimesh.
