pyvista.ParametricCatalanMinimal

ParametricCatalanMinimal(**kwargs) → PolyData

Generate Catalan’s minimal surface.

ParametricCatalanMinimal generates Catalan’s minimal surface parametrically. This minimal surface contains the cycloid as a geodesic.

Parameters:

**kwargsdict, optional

See surface_from_para() for additional keyword arguments.

Returns:

pyvista.PolyData

ParametricCatalanMinimal surface.

Examples

Create a ParametricCatalanMinimal mesh.

>>> import pyvista as pv
>>> mesh = pv.ParametricCatalanMinimal()
>>> mesh.plot(color='w', smooth_shading=True)
