Detailed Description

A particle being tracked.

This class represents a single particle in the tracking system. ICParticleList contains all such particles current being tracked.

Member Function Documentation

getLastPt()

virtual const ICTrackPt & zone::ICParticle::getLastPt ( ) const

pure virtual

This funcion gets the last position saved for the particle. This could have been set by a FISH function, or by the tracking logic.

• dTime is the accumulated fluid time associated with this position.
• dvCrd is the position of the particle.
• dvVel is the velocity of the particle.

getNext()

virtual const ICParticle * zone::ICParticle::getNext ( ) const

pure virtual

Returns a const pointer to the next IParticle object in the CParticle list, or 0 to indicate the end of the list. See ICParticleList::getFirst()

getParticlePath()

virtual void zone::ICParticle::getParticlePath ( FArray< DVect > * path ) const

pure virtual

This funcion populates a given vector with the positions of the trajectory of the particle in the fluid.
