splinepy.microstructure.tiles.double_lattice.DoubleLattice.create_tile

DoubleLattice.create_tile(parameters=None, parameter_sensitivities=None, contact_length=0.5, **kwargs)

Create a microtile based on the parameters that describe the branch thicknesses.

Thickness parameters are used to describe the inner radius of the outward facing branches

Parameters:

• parameters (np.array) – first entry defines the thickness of the vertical and horizontal branches second entry defines the thickness of the diagonal branches

• parameter_sensitivities (np.ndarray) – correlates with thickness of branches and entouring wall

• contact_length (double) – required for conformity between tiles, sets the length of the center block on the tiles boundary

Returns:

microtile_list

Return type:

list(splines)
