Measuring Geometric Entities in Objects

To select entities you want to measure, enter

model.geom(<tag>).measure().selection().init(entDim);

model.geom(<tag>).measure().selection().set(<objname>,entities);

where entDim is the dimension of the entities, <objname> is the object name, and entities is an integer array containing the entity numbers.

To get the volume/area/length of the selected entities, enter

double vol = model.geom(<tag>).measure().getVolume();

To get the area/length of the boundary of the selected entities, enter

double bndVol = model.geom(<tag>).measure().getBoundaryVolume();

If you have selected two vertices, you can get their distance by entering

double[] d = model.geom(<tag>).measure().getVtxDistance();

d[0] is the distance, and d[i] is the distance in the ith coordinate (i = 1, 2, 3).

If you have selected one vertex, you can get its coordinates by entering

double[] coord = model.geom(<tag>).measure().getVtxCoord();
