Operator CER3 DATE 94/01/10 Opérateur CER3 See also :CERC -------------- GEO1 = CER3 (N1) POIN1 POIN2 POIN3 ('DINI' DENS1) ('DFIN' DENS2) ; Description : ____________ The CER3 operator enables the user to construct an arc of a circle from three points. Contents : __________ POIN1 | POIN2 | : points used to define the arc of the circle POIN3 | (POINT type) N1 : number of generated elements (ENTIER type) DENS1 | : densities associated with the points POIN1 and POIN3 DENS2 | (FLOTTANT type) GEO1 : arc of the circle (MAILLAGE type) Note : _______ If N1 is not specified, the number of generated elements as well as their size will be computed according to the extreme point densities. If N1 is specified and positive, N1 elements of equal length will be generated. If N1 is negative, N1 elements will be generated and their size will be computed according to the extreme point densities. If the densities associated with the POIN1 and POIN3 points are inaccurate, they may be increased. The accurate value of the initial point will be mentioned after the 'DINI' key word, that of the third point will be mentioned after the 'DFIN' key word. If a LIG1 line is given instead of the POIN1 point (or POIN3), this line will be extended as far as the POIN3 point (the line begins at the POIN3 point). If the POIN3 point is not given, the first point of the LIG1 line will be taken into account, which permits to close this line.
