bendRightAngle

Create right-angle bend shape on X-Y plane

Since R2021b

Description

Use the bendRightAngle object to create a right-angle bend shape on the X-Y plane.

Note

This shape object supports behavioral modeling. For more information, see Behavioral Models.

Creation

Description

bend = bendRightAngle creates a right-angle bend shape on the X-Y plane.

example

bend = bendRightAngle(Name=Value) sets Properties using one or more name-value arguments. For example, bendRightAngle(ReferencePoint=[1 1]) creates a right-angle bend shape with the reference point at [1 1]. Properties not specified retain their default values.

example

Properties

expand all

Name of the right-angle bend shape, specified as a character vector or a string scalar.

Example: bend = bendRightAngle(Name="bendrightangle1")

Data Types: char

Reference point for the right-angle bend shape in Cartesian coordinates, specified as a two-element vector.

Example: bend = bendRightAngle(ReferencePoint=[1 2])

Data Types: double

Length of the right-angle bend shape in meters, specified as a two-element vector.

Example: bend = bendRightAngle(Length=[0.0500 0.0500])

Data Types: double

Width of the right-angle bend shape in meters, specified as a two-element vector.

Example: bend = bendRightAngle(Width=[0.0200 0.0200])

Data Types: double

Create a right-angle bend with default properties.

bend = bendRightAngle
bend = 
  bendRightAngle with properties:

              Name: 'myRightAnglebend'
    ReferencePoint: [0 0]
            Length: [0.0100 0.0100]
             Width: [0.0050 0.0050]

View the shape.

show(bend)

Figure contains an axes object. The axes object with xlabel x (mm), ylabel y (mm) contains 2 objects of type patch. These objects represent PEC, myRightAnglebend.

Create a right-angle bend shape of lengths of 10 m and 2 m, width of 2m, and rotate it about the Z-axis by 60 degrees.

bend = bendRightAngle(Length=[10 2],Width=[2 2]);
bend = rotateZ(bend,60)
bend = 
  bendRightAngle with properties:

              Name: 'myRightAnglebend'
    ReferencePoint: [0 0]
            Length: [10 2]
             Width: [2 2]

show(bend)

Figure contains an axes object. The axes object with xlabel x (m), ylabel y (m) contains 2 objects of type patch. These objects represent PEC, myRightAnglebend.

Mesh the right-angle bend shape at a maximum edge length of 1 m.

mesh(bend,MaxEdgeLength=1)

Figure contains an axes object. The axes object with xlabel x (m), ylabel y (m) contains an object of type patch.
