yade.polyhedra_utils.polyhedra(material, size=Vector3(1,1,1), seed=None, v=[], mask=1, fixed=False, color=[-1, -1, -1])[source]

create polyhedra, one can specify vertices directly, or leave it empty for random shape.

Parameters:

  • size (Vector3) – size of new body (see Polyhedra docs)
  • seed (float) – seed for random operations
  • v ([Vector3]) – list of body vertices (see Polyhedra docs)
