the curl, a field of the same side; with x its values at the orientations x

Syntax

C = SO3VF.curl()

The curl, an SO3VectorFieldHarmonic.

c = SO3VF.curl(ori)

Its values at orientations.

Description

The field is taken in its harmonic form; the curl of a gradient vanishes. MATLAB’s curl of a field that is not harmonic returns a handle, here always the harmonic field.

Input

`SO3VF`	SO3VectorField
`x`	orientation, where to evaluate the curl

Output

`C`	SO3VectorFieldHarmonic
`c`	SO3TangentVector, the values at x

Signature

SO3VectorFieldHarmonic.curl(self, x=None)

Used on

SO3FunVectorField

MATLAB’s SO3VectorField.curl
