New particle shapes #34

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Implement general shapes like 'coated ellipsoid', 'boxsphere', 'spherebox'
with a lot of input parameters. It may be also implemented as a arbitrary
composition of basic shapes.

Arbitrary composition part has been moved to a separate issue 79. Here we need 
only
to implement those relatively simple shapes that are needed by users. Cluster of
spheres should probably be the first candidate.

Two recent tools: 'misc/pip' and 'misc/hyperfun' allow relatively easy 
generation of almost any homogeneous. So this can be considered as a workaround 
of this issue.

Another simple but powerful option is a general prism, where the contour in 
xy-plane is given by a file (like axisymmetric). This cross-section is 
translated along the z-axis (or generally along any tilted vector to allow 
non-orthogonal prisms).
