๐ธ SURFACETRANSFORMPOINTS ๐
okay bestie, welcome to the OpenFOAM Commands Manual โจ this one's from the OpenFOAM family (The Open Source CFD Toolbox) and it's literally about moving surface points around. no cap.
โจ NAME โจ
surfaceTransformPoints โ part of OpenFOAM (The Open Source CFD Toolbox). yes that's the whole name section, she's brief but iconic ๐
๐ฆ SYNOPSIS ๐ฆ
surfaceTransformPoints [OPTIONS] input output
๐ DESCRIPTION ๐
Transform (translate / rotate / scale) surface points. ๐
It's giving transformPoints but for surfaces, fr fr. same energy, different target.
Note:roll= rotate aboutx,pitch= rotate abouty,yaw= rotate aboutzโ write that down bestie, you WILL forget it ๐
๐ ARGUMENTS ๐
