crop the polygon from the 3D surface

8 次查看(过去 30 天)
Hi all,
I have such an attached 3D surface and a polygon on it. (Code is provided below)
I aim to crop the portion which is only inside the polygon and delete everything outside the polygon.
I found out the function of "inpolygon", but it did not work well enough since it is for 2D.
Then I encountered with "inpolyhedron" which is written for 3D, but was not that successfull on using it.
Is there any other way that you would suggest?
Thank you
Regards

It's difficult to tell from the picture... does all the data (both the surface and polygon) fall along a single plane?

Hi Kelly,
Thank you for your reply.
Yes, there are 5 points on the surface and then I joined those points with lines.
So, both of the polygon and the surface are on the same plane.
I've provided the script in the main question part.
Thanks you
Regards

What about this? I just cutted surface in 2d plane
[X1,Y1,Z1] = sph2cart(llambda1,pphi1,6.9);
surf(X1,Y1,Z1)
in = inpolygon(X1,Y1,xl1,yl1);
view(3);
hold on
plot3(X1(in),Y1(in),Z1(in),'.r')
plot3(xl1, yl1, zl1,'MarkerSize',14, 'Color','red')
axis vis3d

Darova beat me to the answer...
Your points don't actually fall on a plane, but rather on a lightly-curved surface. You can crop the data as desired by projecting in onto a 2D plane. That's what Darova's call to inpolygon does, by ignoring the z-coordinates... projects the surface and polygon coordinates onto the XY plane.
And as to how they figured out rr1 = 6.9, if one assumes the polygon vertices fall on the same surface:
[~,~,r] = cart2sph(xl1,yl1,zl1)
r =
6.9 6.9 6.9 6.9 6.9 6.9

Hi Kelly,
Thanks for your explanations, I understand.
Do you know how can I connect those points (vertices of a polygon) with an arc instead of a line.
I mean , now I understand better what you meant by asking if the surface and the polygon are on the same plane or not.
Atually I want to crop the portion which looks like a polygon from the surface, so I need to have the curvature.
In this case, I assume there is not a curvature, do you agree with me?
Thanks
Regards

Here is another idea using triangulation (initmesh)
  • create polygon
  • use initmesh to triangulate it
  • calculate Z coordinate
  • rotate the object
