Function Documentation

GetWingDepthAxis()

TiglAxis tigl::winghelper::GetWingDepthAxis

(

const tigl::CCPACSWing &

wing

)

Returns the depth direction of the wing

Note: this is a heuristic that is determined by the wing shape and its position in 3D space.

TODO: In future we need do define on the cpacs basis the projection plane of the wing

GetWingSpanAxis()

TiglAxis tigl::winghelper::GetWingSpanAxis

(

const tigl::CCPACSWing &

wing

)

Returns the major direction of the wing (correspond to the span direction)

@Details: If a symmetry plan is set, the major direction is normal to the symmetry plan, otherwise, an heuristic is used to find out the best span axis candidate.

Note: this is a heuristic that is determined by the wing shape and its position in 3D space.

TODO: In future we need do define on the cpacs basis the projection plane of the wing
