Namespace: AGI.Foundation.Geometry.Shapes
Assembly: AGI.Foundation.Core (in AGI.Foundation.Core.dll) Version: 25.1.421.0 (25.1.421.0)

Syntax

public UnitCartesian SurfaceNormalMotion(
	Cartesian surfacePosition
)

Public Function SurfaceNormalMotion ( 
	surfacePosition As Cartesian
) As UnitCartesian

public:
UnitCartesian SurfaceNormalMotion(
	Cartesian surfacePosition
)

member SurfaceNormalMotion : 
        surfacePosition : Cartesian -> UnitCartesian

surfacePosition: Type: AGI.Foundation.Coordinates.Cartesian
The position of the surface point.

Type: UnitCartesian
The surface normal vector.

Remarks

The surfacePosition must be in a fixed reference frame centered on the center of mass of this ellipsoid and must be the motion of a surface point.
