Arc

class ansys.motorcad.core.geometry.Arc(start, end, centre=None, radius=None)

Python representation of Motor-CAD arc entity based upon start, end, (centre or radius).

Parameters:

startCoordinate

Start coordinate.

endCoordinate

End coordinate.

centreCoordinate, optional

Centre coordinate.

radiusfloat, optional

Arc radius

Methods

Arc.coordinate_on_entity(coordinate)	Get if a coordinate exists on this Arc.
Arc.coordinate_within_arc_radius(coordinate)	Check if coordinate exists within arc radius.
Arc.from_coordinates(start_point, ...)	Take three coordinates and converts to an arc.
Arc.get_coordinate_from_distance(...)	Get the coordinate at the specified distance along the arc from the reference coordinate.
Arc.get_coordinate_from_percentage_distance(...)	Get the coordinate at the percentage distance along the arc from the reference coord.
Arc.mirror(mirror_line)	Mirror arc about a line.
Arc.reverse()	Reverse Arc entity.
Arc.rotate(centre_point, angle)	Rotate entity around a point for a given angle.
Arc.translate(x, y)	Translate Entity by specified x,y distances.

Attributes

Arc.centre	Get centre point of circle defining arc.
Arc.end_angle	Get angle of end point from centre point coordinates.
Arc.length	Get length of arc from start to end along circumference.
Arc.midpoint	Get midpoint of arc.
Arc.start_angle	Get angle of start point from centre point coordinates.
Arc.total_angle	Get arc sweep angle.
