I am trying to solve the following problem preferably using MATLAB:
I have a tube with two branches (please see attached in the link below the point cloud showing this model where the columns are x y z and a variable respectively). I also have a centreline that runs through the main branch of the model. Please also see attached to the link the centreline points where the columns are x y z respectively . I have also attached images showing the model 1 and centreline 2. The red outline drawn on the model geometry highlights where the main branch is located.
At each centreline point I am trying to extract the points located tangentially along the model to that centreline point to a new matrix along with their corresponding variable value. I have attached two images 3 that hopefully clarify better what I want to achieve 4.
