GeometryConcept Object and Methods

class GeometryConcept.GeometryConcept(position=(0, 0, 0))

Abstract geometry concept. Used as base class for Wedge and Instrument.

__init__(position=(0, 0, 0))

load(filename)

Method to load an object from a pickled file.

plot(ax)

Parameters

ax (-) – 3D matplotlib axis into which plotting is performed

Warning

Method not incorporated, but acts as virtual method.

property position

Kwargs:

• Position (3vector): Position of object (default [0,0,0])

Raises

• - AttributeError –

• - NotImplementedError –

>>> GenericConcept = GeometryConcept(position=(0.0,1.0,0.0))
>>> print(GenericConcept.position)
(0.0,1.0,0.0)

GeometryObject Object and Methods

class GeometryConcept.GeometryObject(position=(0.0, 0.0, 0.0), direction=(0, 0, 1))

Physical geometry object on which other physical MJOLNIR components are build. All of the components needed to create an instrument should inherit from this class in order enforce a uniform interface.

Kwargs:

• Position (3vector): Position of object (default [0,0,0])

• Direction (3vector): Direction along which the object points (default [0,0,1])

Raises

- AttributeError –

>>> GenericObject = GeometryObject(position=(0.0,1.0,0.0),direction=(1.0,0,0))
>>> print(GenericObject.position)
(0.0,1.0,0.0)

__init__(position=(0.0, 0.0, 0.0), direction=(0, 0, 1))

Kwargs:

• Position (3vector): Position of object (default [0,0,0])

• Direction (3vector): Direction along which the object points (default [0,0,1])

Raises

- AttributeError –

>>> GenericObject = GeometryObject(position=(0.0,1.0,0.0),direction=(1.0,0,0))
>>> print(GenericObject.position)
(0.0,1.0,0.0)
