orientationPlot edit page

an abstract class representing 3d plots of orientation space

Where an ODFSections slices orientation space, an orientationPlot maps all of it into one three dimensional axes. A deriving class only says how an orientation becomes a point - the fundamental region boundary, the axes and the labels are handled here.

Such a plot is not constructed directly but selected by a flag of plot, see newOrientationPlot.

Syntax

plot(ori,'axisAngle')
plot(ori,'Rodrigues')
plot(ori,'Bunge','ignoreFundamentalRegion')

Options

ignoreFundamentalRegion plot orientations as they are
project2FundamentalRegion project into the fundamental region, default
restrict2FundamentalRegion drop orientations outside it
noBoundary do not plot the boundary

Class Properties

CS1, CS2 the two symmetry
CS, SS crystal and specimen symmetry
ax the axes handle
antipodal grain exchange symmetry
fRMode how orientations outside the fundamental region are treated
plotGrid the grid the plot is evaluated on
gridSize size of that grid

Derived Classes

axisAnglePlot axis times angle
RodriguesPlot axis times tan(angle/2)
homochoricPlot volume preserving ball
cubochoricPlot volume preserving cube
quaternionPlot axis times sin(angle/2)
conformalPlot axis times 2*tan(angle/4)
BungePlot the Euler angle box
