public interface Volume
extends Shape

An interface for 3d volumes such as spheres and boxes. Implementing classes should consider a volume as all points within and on the boundary of the volume. This implies, for instance, that two spheres overlap when the distance between their center-points is equal to or less than their combined radii. If only the shell should be considered then subclasses with adequate overriding methods should be created.

Method Detail

overlaps

boolean overlaps(Volume vol)

Determine if this volume overlaps vol. Two volumes overlap if their surfaces touch or if the union of interiors is non-empty.

getVolume

double getVolume()

Get the volume.

clone

Volume clone()

Make a deep clone this volume.
