Public methodStatic memberCompute(Mesh)
Compute the VolumeMassProperties for a single Mesh.
Public methodStatic memberCompute(Surface)
Compute the VolumeMassProperties for a single Surface.
Public methodStatic memberCompute(Brep, Boolean, Boolean, Boolean, Boolean)

Public methodStatic memberCompute(IEnumerableGeometryBase, Boolean, Boolean, Boolean, Boolean)
Computes the VolumeMassProperties for a collection of geometric objects. At present only Breps, Surfaces, Meshes and Planar Closed Curves are supported.
Public methodStatic memberCompute(Mesh, Boolean, Boolean, Boolean, Boolean)
Compute the VolumeMassProperties for a single Mesh.
Public methodStatic memberCompute(Surface, Boolean, Boolean, Boolean, Boolean)
Compute the VolumeMassProperties for a single Surface.
Public methodStatic memberCompute(Brep, Boolean, Boolean, Boolean, Boolean, Double, Double)
Compute the VolumeMassProperties for a single Brep.
Public methodDispose
Actively reclaims unmanaged resources that this instance uses.
Protected methodDispose(Boolean)
For derived class implementers.

This method is called with argument true when class user calls Dispose(), while with argument false when the Garbage Collector invokes the finalizer, or Finalize() method.

You must reclaim all used unmanaged resources in both cases, and can use this chance to call Dispose on disposable fields if the argument is true.

Also, you must call the base virtual method within your overriding method.

Public methodEquals
Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Protected methodFinalize
Passively reclaims unmanaged resources when the class user did not explicitly call Dispose().
(Overrides ObjectFinalize.)
Public methodGetHashCode
Serves as the default hash function.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodGetType
Gets the Type of the current instance.
(Inherited from Object.)
Protected methodMemberwiseClone
Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodSum
Sum mass properties together to get an aggregate mass.
Public methodToString
Returns a string that represents the current object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodTransform
On input, this contains the mass properties for some geometry G. On exit, this contains the mass properties for the transformed geometry xform(G).
Public methodWorldCoordinatesPrincipalMoments
Calculates the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of moments matrix in world coordinates.
Public methodWorldCoordinatesPrincipalMomentsOfInertia
Calculates the principal moments of inertia and principal axes with respect to world coordinates.
