Description
4D tectonic reconstruction
Tectonic reconstruction using deformable and tearable meshes to simulate the behaviour of the Earth's lithospheric plates. Pplates utilises SceneKit and the MacOS metal framework, with orthographic and perspective projections of the Virtual Earth representation of the planet. Perspective enables the user to fly beneath slabs to image the earthquake distribution for example. Calculations "under the hood" in the Pplates math engine now use quaternions, and the rotation of individual mesh objects is calculated, for any specific time, from a collapsed pole sequence. This reduces the overhead for the calculation, and thus enhances interactivity. However, the collapsed pole sequence must be calculated before moving back or forward through time. 3D mesh objects to be mapped to the 2D mesh window and re-associated with texture images.

What's New
version
8.0.1updated
1 year agoVersion §8 of Pplates adopts measures to reduce the number of vertices in any scene graph, thereby considerably enhancing application support. This means in principle that nodes and edges will not be 'enhanced' unless they are selected. Version §8.0.1 addresses issues raised by the user community in respect to conditioning a DXF file and then using various mesh element selection options.
