ForceDiagram.face_curvature(fkey)[source]

Dimensionless face curvature.

Face curvature is defined as the maximum face vertex deviation from the best-fit plane of the face vertices divided by the average lengths of the face vertices to the face centroid.

Parameters:

fkey (int) – The face key.

Returns:

float – The dimensionless curvature.
