Complex surface to plot
显示 更早的评论
Hello! I need to make represent the protection surface of a lightning arrester. This means I have a vertical cube(very slim)...height = 7; sides= 0.5; I also have a radius of a circle of about 3.5; I have to intersect these and plot a surface that looks like a circus tent. It should look like the images below (a wizard's hat, if you want). Can anybody help me? Thanks a lot!

I don’t have your function to plot, so I created one. The rest of the code is (I hope) relatively straightforward to understand. I leave it to you to insert the correct structure of the lightning arrestor structure, although you may not need it since the mesh plot will obscure it. Change it as necessary to create the result you want.
The Code —
f = @(b,r) b(1).*exp(-b(2).*r); % Function Of Radius Only
a = linspace(0, 2*pi, 50); % Angle
r = linspace(0, 100, 50); % Radius
b = [30 0.05]; % Parameter Vector
[A,R] = meshgrid(a, r); % Creat Mesh Matrices
fr = f(b,R); % Evaluate Function Of ‘R’ Matrix
[xm,ym,zm] = pol2cart(A,R,fr); % Convert To Cartesian
figure(1)
mesh(xm, ym, zm)
grid on
The Plot —

Thanks a lot!!! I cannot express how grateful I am!
As always, my pleasure!
It will look more like your original plot if you add
axis equal
after the grid on call. (I just thought of that.)
Thanks! I have another questions though. How can I change the program in order to make the margins of the tent as being part of a circle? (i tried inserting the equation of a circle/sphere somewhere but it doesn't seem to work.)
My pleasure!
I’m not certain what you want.
See if this works:
The Code —
f = @(b,r) b(1).*exp(-b(2).*r); % Function Of Radius Only
a = linspace(0, 2*pi, 75); % Angle
r = linspace(0, 100, 75); % Radius
b = [30 0.05]; % Parameter Vector
[A,R] = meshgrid(a, r); % Creat Mesh Matrices
fr = f(b,R); % Evaluate Function Of ‘R’ Matrix
[xm,ym,zm] = pol2cart(A,R,fr); % Convert To Cartesian
[Xs,Ys,Zs] = sphere;
figure(1)
mesh(xm, ym, zm, 'FaceColor','interp')
ax1 = gca;
hold on
surf(Xs*100, Ys*100, Zs*100, 'FaceAlpha', 0, 'EdgeAlpha',0.2, 'EdgeColor','k')
ax2 = gca;
hold off
grid on
axis equal
colormap(ax1, jet)
view([-40, 20])
The Plot —

f = @(b,r) b(1).*exp(-b(2).*r); This function I wanted to change it in order to create the "margins" of the tent as being part of a circle/sphere. So, the function needs to describe a circle. The problem is I don't what function. Thanks!
My pleasure.
I don’t understand what you want. Do you have an image of what you want that you could share?
I tried explaining in the picture below.
You need to provide the function you want to use. I know essentially nothing about the physics of lightning arrestors.
The best I can do is a version of the inverse-square law (that seems appropriate here):
f = @(c,r) c*(1./(1 + r/c).^2); % Function Of Radius Only
a = linspace(0, 2*pi, 50); % Angle
r = linspace(0, 100, 50); % Radius
c = 30;
[A,R] = meshgrid(a, r); % Creat Mesh Matrices
fr = f(c,R); % Evaluate Function Of ‘R’ Matrix
[xm,ym,zm] = pol2cart(A,R,fr); % Convert To Cartesian
figure(1)
mesh(xm, ym, zm)
grid on
axis equal
