Class: CellExporter

Prepares the export to svg of multiple cells. It has three steps:

1. Cleanup Joints from Plate Merging (Remove Tee-Joints, replace Cross-Joints with [IntersectionAvoidanceCrossJoint](intersectionavoidancecrossjoint.md)s
2. Split plates along cell membranes and applies [CellMembraneJoint](cellmembranejoint.md)s
3. Add Tee-Joints back

Constructors

constructor

+ new CellExporter(cellDescriptor: CellDescriptor, assembly: Assembly): CellExporter

Defined in src/modules/kyub.core.cell/src/CellExporter.ts:62

Parameters:

Name	Type
cellDescriptor	CellDescriptor
assembly	Assembly

Returns: CellExporter

Properties

Private assembly

• assembly: Assembly

Defined in src/modules/kyub.core.cell/src/CellExporter.ts:64

Private cellDescriptor

• cellDescriptor: CellDescriptor

Defined in src/modules/kyub.core.cell/src/CellExporter.ts:64

Methods

Private _enrichJointsWithMiddle

▸ _enrichJointsWithMiddle(surfaceToPlates: Map‹MeshSurface, Plate[]›, surfaceToSections: Map‹MeshSurface, OutlineSection[]›): void

Defined in src/modules/kyub.core.cell/src/CellExporter.ts:169

find and add section from membrane to CellMembraneJoints

Parameters:

Name	Type
surfaceToPlates	Map‹MeshSurface, Plate[]›
surfaceToSections	Map‹MeshSurface, OutlineSection[]›

Returns: void

---

Private _fixCrossingCells

▸ _fixCrossingCells(): Plate[]

Defined in src/modules/kyub.core.cell/src/CellExporter.ts:118

Membranes that are crossing will be given CrossJoints by the Plate Merger. Since the membranes will be longer than material size, they need to be split at this position. So each membrane will be split at that position and the split plates connected by IntersectionAvoidanceCrossJoints.

Returns: Plate[]

---

Private _getPlateForMiddleSurface

▸ _getPlateForMiddleSurface(surface: SingleSurfaceDescriptor): Plate

Defined in src/modules/kyub.core.cell/src/CellExporter.ts:217

Parameters:

Name	Type
surface	SingleSurfaceDescriptor

Returns: Plate

---

Private _removeTeeJoints

▸ _removeTeeJoints(middlePlates: Plate[]): Map‹MeshSurface, OutlineSection[]›

Defined in src/modules/kyub.core.cell/src/CellExporter.ts:187

Removes all tee joints between middle and neighbors from all cells

Parameters:

Name	Type
middlePlates	Plate[]

Returns: Map‹MeshSurface, OutlineSection[]›

---

prepareExport

▸ prepareExport(): Promise‹void›

Defined in src/modules/kyub.core.cell/src/CellExporter.ts:69

Executes all steps for preparing the export (See Class description)

Returns: Promise‹void›

---

Static Private _cutCellSurface

▸ _cutCellSurface(cell: CellMembrane, plates: Plate[]): Promise‹object›

Defined in src/modules/kyub.core.cell/src/CellExporter.ts:38

Splits the given plates along the Cutting plane of the given cell. Split plates are connected by CellMembraneJoints.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
cell	CellMembrane	needed for the cutting plane
plates	Plate[]	Plates to split

Returns: Promise‹object›

added Plates which were created by the split and removed Plates which were destroyed by the split
