Class EllipsoidTest

java.lang.Object

maspack.geometry.EllipsoidTest

public class EllipsoidTest
extends java.lang.Object

This class is intended to test the computation of prinicpal curvatures and radii for ellipsoids, based on the first and second fundamental forms.

For computing the fundamental forms of ellipsoid, see http://mathworld.wolfram.com/Ellipsoid.html. For details on how to use these to compute the principal directions and radii, see Basics of the Differential Geometry of Surfaces, by Gallier, http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~cis610/gma-v2-chap20.pdf, and Curvature of ellipsoids and other surfaces, by W.F. Harris (2006).
