sections of constant alpha in the Matthies (ZYZ) convention

Syntax

oS = alphaSections(cs, ss, sections=6)
oS = alphaSections(cs, ss, alpha=np.arange(0, 91, 15)*degree)

Input

frameA crystal reference frame
frameB specimen reference frame; None uses the default
sections number of sections when explicit angle values are omitted; default 6
values explicit section angles in radians, overriding the section count
tol maximum angular assignment tolerance in radians; default 5*degree
maxPhi upper limit of the middle Euler angle in radians; None uses the symmetry-dependent limit
maxAzimuth upper limit of the in-section azimuth in radians; None uses its symmetry-dependent limit
kwargs section angles may also be supplied as alpha=values

Members

alpha the alpha values of the sections

MATLAB’s alphaSections_index
