vtkYoungsMaterialInterface

Section: Visualization Toolkit Graphics Classes

Usage

Reconstructs material interfaces from a mesh containing mixed cells (where several materials are mixed) this implementation is based on the youngs algorithm, generalized to arbitrary cell types and works on both 2D and 3D meshes. the main advantage of the youngs algorithm is it guarantees the material volume correctness. for 2D meshes, the AxisSymetric flag allows to switch between a pure 2D (plannar) algorithm and an axis symetric 2D algorithm handling volumes of revolution.
