— pyFormex¶
pyFormex is a tool for generating, manipulating and transforming large geometrical models of 3D structures by sequences of mathematical transformations.
pyFormex is not a complete application for all 3D modelling needs, but rather a programming framework to quickly develop specialized 3D applications.
pyFormex contains:
A well tested library of classes aimed at efficiently handling 3D geometry, especially triangulized surfaces, finite element meshes and curves.
A collection of low level support classes to build upon.
A Qt based library for fast and easy GUI development to provide interactive support interactive geometry handling.
A quality OpenGL rendering engine to display the geometry and computational results.
A vast set of examples demonstrating many of the possibilities.
A compiled acceleration library for some time critical functions.
pyFormex has been under development since 2004 and is still maintained by the original author. It is distributed under the GNU General Public License version 3 or later.
