TorusKnotGeometry

Creates a torus knot, the particular shape of which is defined by a pair of coprime integers, p and q. If p and q are not coprime, the result will be a torus link.

Code Example

const geometry = new THREE.TorusKnotGeometry( 10, 3, 100, 16 );
const material = new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial( { color: 0xffff00 } );
const torusKnot = new THREE.Mesh( geometry, material );
scene.add( torusKnot );

Constructor

new TorusKnotGeometry( radius : number, tube : number, tubularSegments : number, radialSegments : number, p : number, q : number )

Constructs a new torus knot geometry.

radius

Radius of the torus knot.

Default is 1.
tube

Radius of the tube.

Default is 0.4.
tubularSegments

The number of tubular segments.

Default is 64.
radialSegments

The number of radial segments.

Default is 8.
p

This value determines, how many times the geometry winds around its axis of rotational symmetry.

Default is 2.
q

This value determines, how many times the geometry winds around a circle in the interior of the torus.

Default is 3.

Properties

.parameters : Object

Holds the constructor parameters that have been used to generate the geometry. Any modification after instantiation does not change the geometry.

Static Methods

.fromJSON( data : Object ) : TorusKnotGeometry

Factory method for creating an instance of this class from the given JSON object.

data

A JSON object representing the serialized geometry.
Returns: A new instance.
