Specify a helix geometry

Usage

synthetic.helix(
  pitch = 0.2,
  t.range = c(0, 2 * pi),
  ambient.dim = 3L,
  frame = c("canonical", "random.orthonormal", "supplied"),
  frame.algorithm = NULL,
  frame.matrix = NULL,
  offset = NULL
)

Arguments

pitch: Helix pitch.
t.range: Admissible parameter interval.
ambient.dim: Ambient dimension.
frame, frame.algorithm, frame.matrix, offset: Frame parameters.

Value

A synthetic geometry component.

Examples

synthetic.helix(pitch = 0.25, t.range = c(0, pi))
