In brandynlucca/acousticTS: Estimating acoustic target strength via physics-based scattering models

Manually generate a FLS object.

Description

Manually generate a FLS object.

Usage

fls_generate(
  shape = "arbitrary",
  x_body = NULL,
  y_body = NULL,
  z_body = NULL,
  length_body = NULL,
  radius_body = NULL,
  radius_curvature_ratio = NULL,
  n_segments = 18,
  g_body,
  h_body,
  theta_body = pi/2,
  ID = NULL,
  length_units = "m",
  theta_units = "radians",
  ...
)

Arguments

shape	Optional input argument that dictates shape-type, if desired, for generalized shapes.
x_body	Vector containing x-axis body (m) shape data.
y_body	Vector containing y-axis body (m) shape data.
z_body	Vector containing z-axis body (m) shape data.
length_body	Optional input for a generic length value input.
radius_body	Vector containing radii (m).
radius_curvature_ratio	Length-to-curvature ratio (pc/L).
n_segments	Number of body segments.
g_body	Density contrast.
h_body	Soundspeed contrast
theta_body	Orientation of the target relative to the transmit source (\theta). Broadside incidence is considered 90 degrees, or pi/2. Default value is pi/2; input should be in radians.
ID	Optional metadata entry.
length_units	Units used for position vector. Defaults to "m".
theta_units	Units used for orientation. Defaults to "radians".
...	Additional parameters.

Value

Calls in an FLS-class object from a *.csv file
