load_spline

load_spline() → PolyData

Load an example spline mesh.

This example data was created with:

>>> import numpy as np
>>> import pyvista as pv
>>> theta = np.linspace(-4 * np.pi, 4 * np.pi, 100)
>>> z = np.linspace(-2, 2, 100)
>>> r = z**2 + 1
>>> x = r * np.sin(theta)
>>> y = r * np.cos(theta)
>>> points = np.column_stack((x, y, z))
>>> mesh = pv.Spline(points, 1000)

Returns:

pyvista.PolyData

Spline mesh.
