VERSION = 1
check()

assert that the arc is correct (begin != center)

Parameters

complex

get_end()

Return the end of the arc

Parameters

self (Arc2) – An Arc2 object

Returns

end – Complex coordinates of the end of the Arc2

Return type

complex

get_middle()

Return the point at the middle of the arc

Parameters

self (Arc2) – An Arc2 object

Returns

Zmid – Complex coordinates of the middle of the Arc2

Return type

complex

reverse()

Reverse the begin and end point of the Line

Parameters

Returns

Return type

None

split_half(is_begin=True)

Cut the line in half (modify the object)

Parameters

  • self (Arc2) – An Arc2 object

  • is_begin (bool) – True to keep the part begin=>middle, False for the part middle=>end

translate(Zt)

Translate the Arc2 object with

Parameters

  • self (Arc2) – An Arc2 object

  • Zt (complex) – Complex coordinates value for translation

Returns

Return type

None

save(save_path='', is_folder=False)

Save the object to the save_path

Parameters

  • self – A pyleecan object

  • save_path (str) – path to the folder to save the object

  • is_folder (bool) – to split the object in different files: separate simulation machine and materials

copy(**kwargs)

Return a copy of the class

get_logger()

Get the object logger or its parent’s one

Parameters

obj – A pyleecan object

Returns

logger – Pyleecan object dedicated logger

Return type
