getSpheroidProjection: Projection of defect types

Description

In case one wishes to analyze the defect projections directly the function returns the projected objects itself. The two types of defects lead to different projected objects. In case of defect type crack the circle of maximum radius of the particle is orthogonally projected otherwise the whole particle is projected in the main load direction, i.e. the xy plane.

Usage

getSpheroidProjection(S, type)

Arguments

S

list of (non-overlapping) particles (spheroids)

type

either crack or delam

Value

returns a list of 2d ellipse objects.

Details

Get the projected objects (ellipses) of particles dependant on their defect types
