Points

Type:Matrix<float> Range:[v_11, …, v_1j; …; v_i1, …; v_ij], j<=2 Default:-/- Appearance:simple

The generator of the SurfaceOfRevolution defined as the height profile of the radial dependence around the center.

For example to form a gaussian profile one can use a simple python snippet to generate a points list:

def gaussian_profile(
  num_points=10,
  width=2,
  amplitude= 1.5,
  rmax=10
):
  x = np.linspace(0, rmax,num_points)
  y = amplitude * np.exp(-(x**2) / width**2)
  points= np.vstack((x, y)).T,
  return points

resulting in the following (rounded) points with the default settings:

Points = [0. , 1.5;
           1.11111, 1.30773;
           2.22222, 0.86655;
           3.33333, 0.43644;
           4.44444, 0.16707;
           5.55556, 0.04861;
           6.66667, 0.01075;
           7.77778e+00, 1.81000e-03;
           8.88889e+00, 2.30000e-04;
           1.e+01, 2.e-05]
