Calculation of the First-Order Derivative of the Simplified Gielis Equation

Description

DSGE is used to calculate the first-order derivative of the simplified Gielis equation at a given \varphi-value.

Usage

DSGE(P, phi)

Arguments

P

the parameters of the simplified Gielis equation, including a, n_{1}, and n_{2}.

phi

the \varphi-value used in the simplified Gielis equation.

Details

The first-order derivative of the simplified Gielis equation with arguments simpver = 1 and m = 1 at a given \varphi-value is:

g(x) = \frac{a}{4}\,\frac{n_{2}}{n_{1}}\,\left[\left(\cos{\frac{\varphi}{4}}\right)^{n_{2}-1}\left(\sin{\frac{\varphi}{4}}\right)-\left(\sin{\frac{\varphi}{4}}\right)^{n_{2}-1}\left(\cos{\frac{\varphi}{4}}\right)\right]\ \left[\left(\cos{\frac{\varphi}{4}}\right)^{n_{2}}+\left(\sin{\frac{\varphi}{4}}\right)^{n_{2}}\right]^{-\frac{1}{n_{1}}-1},

where P has three parameters: a, n_{1}, and n_{2}.

Note

The argument P in the DSGE function only has the three parameters: a, n_{1}, and n_{2}.
