(continued...)Pipe with constant radiusA particular case of a pipe with a constant section is a pipe with a constant radius. In ACIS such surfaces are called tubes.Here is a sample screenshot:Here is an example of creation:GeomFill_Pipe aTube (thePath, theRadius);aTube.Perform (aTol, Standard_False, (GeomAbs_Shape)Min (GeomAbs_C1, thePath->Continuity()), aMaxDeg, aMaxSeg);Pipe with constant radius and two rail curves As a convenience, the pipe algorithm allows to specify two...
