Re: Volume and Surface Area
I'm not sure how well you know the scripting language, but here's how you can calculate the surface area of a mesh. The area of a triangle is equal to half the magnitude of the cross product of two of it's edges. ie. for triangle ABC: area ABC = 0.5 * | AB X AC | and then the surface area is just that iterated across the… -
Re: Volume and Surface Area
No, it works on ALL triagles. Read it carefully, I'm not multiplying the height x width, I'm doing a cross-product between two edge vectors, and the definition of the magnitude of a cross product is that it is the area of the parallelogram formed by the two vectors. (from…
