Sphere 3D• Sphere[axis, rad, facets] generates a sphere of radius rad, centered at the origin of axis, with facets divisions along either circumference. The axis of revolution of the sphere points in the direction of axis. • Sphere[axis, rad, {circfacets, polarfacets}] generates a sphere with circfacets segments around the equator, and polarfacets segments looping over the poles. • Sphere returns a list of Mathematica graphics primitives that are functions of mechanism location variables. • rad may be replaced with a list {rx, ry, rz} to produce an ellipsoid. • The following options can be given:
• The Angle option specifies the swept angle about the major axis. • Mech's overloading of the built-in Sphere symbol has no effect on its usage in other Mathematica code. • See also: Bar, Revolve, Torus, Wheel. Further Examples Load the Modeler3D package and define a simple model. Sphere is used to draw several spheres on the crank body.
