Line, Plane, and Fault create a "line", "plane", "pair", and "fault"
class object, respectively, from the given set of values.
as.line, as.plane, as.pair, and as.fault attempt to turn its argument into a
"line", "plane", and "fault" class object, respectively.
is.line, is.plane, is.pair, and is.fault test if its argument is a "line",
"plane", and "fault" class object, respectively.
Usage
Line(azimuth, plunge)
Plane(dip_direction, dip)
Fault(dip_direction, dip, azimuth, plunge, sense = NULL)
Pair(dip_direction, dip, azimuth, plunge)
as.line(l)
as.plane(p)
as.fault(f)
as.pair(f)
is.line(l)
is.plane(p)
is.fault(f)
is.pair(f)
is.spherical(l)Arguments
- azimuth, plunge
numeric vectors. Azimuth and plunge of a line (in degrees)
- dip_direction, dip
numeric vectors. Dip direction and dip of a plane (in degrees)
- sense
(optional) integer. Sense of the line on a fault plane. Either
1or-1for normal or thrust offset, respectively.- l, p, f
numeric vector or array containing the spherical coordinates (1st element/column is azimuth, 2nd element/column is inclination, both in degrees), or object of class
"line","plane","pair", or"fault"
Details
is.line, is.plane, is.pair, and is.fault return TRUE if l, p, and f
are an object of class "line", "plane", "pair" or "fault", respectively, and
FALSE otherwise.
is.spherical returns TRUE if the argument's class is one of "line",
"plane", "pair", or "fault" and FALSE otherwise
as.line, as.plane, as.pair, and as.fault are is generic functions. If the
argument is a "line" or "plane" class, it will be converted.
