Constructor Detail

Volume

public Volume(double value,
              int unit)

Volume constructor.

Parameters:

value - the volume in the specified unit.

unit - the measurement unit being used.

Throws:

ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException - unknown measurement unit

Volume

public Volume(Composite c)

Volume constructor from Composite quantity.

Parameters:

c - the quantity to convert.

Throws:

UnitDimensionException - composite is not a volume.

See Also:

Composite

Volume

public Volume(Length radius,
              Angle theta)

Volume constructor from a Length and an Angle (slice of a sphere). It returns the volume of the slice defined from the specified sphere radius and central angle.

Parameters:

radius - the sphere radius.

theta - the central solid angle.

Method Detail

getValue

public double getValue(int unit)

Gets the volume in the specified unit.

Parameters:

unit - the measurement unit being used.

Returns:

volume in the specified measurement unit.

Throws:

ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException - unknown measurement unit

setValue

public void setValue(double value,
                     int unit)

Sets this Volume using the specified unit.

Parameters:

value - the new volume in the specified unit.

unit - the measurement unit being used.

Throws:

ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException - unknown measurement unit

add

public Volume add(Volume x)

Returns a Volume whose value is (this + x).

Parameters:

x - the Volume to be added.

Returns:

(this + x)

substract

public Volume substract(Volume x)

Returns a Volume whose value is (this - x).

Parameters:

x - the Volume to be substracted.

Returns:

(this - x)

multiply

public Volume multiply(double coefficient)

Returns a Volume whose value is (this * coefficient).

Parameters:

coefficient - the dimensionless multiplier.

Returns:

(this * coefficient)

divide

public Volume divide(double coefficient)

Returns a Volume whose value is (this / coefficient).

Parameters:

coefficient - the dimensionless divisor.

Returns:

(this / coefficient)

Throws:

ArithmeticException - coefficient == 0.0

divide

public Length divide(Area x)

Returns a Length whose value is (this / x).

Parameters:

x - the Area divisor.

Returns:

(this / x)

Throws:

ArithmeticException - x.getValue(SQUARE_METER) == 0.0

Returns a Mass whose value is (this * d).

Parameters:

d - the volumetric density multiplier.

compareTo

public int compareTo(Volume x)

Compares this Volume with the specified Volume. This method is provided in preference to individual methods for each of the six boolean comparison operators (<, ==, >, >=, !=, <=). The suggested idiom for performing these comparisons is: (x.compareTo(y) <op> 0), where <op> is one of the six comparison operators.

Parameters:

x - Volume to which this Volume is to be compared.

Returns:

-1, 0 or 1 as this Volume is numerically less than, equal to, or greater than x.

compareTo

public int compareTo(Object o)

Compares this Volume with the specified Object. If the Object is a Volume, this method behaves like compareTo(Volume). Otherwise, it throws a ClassCastException (as Volumes are comparable only to other Volumes).

Specified by:

compareTo in interface Comparable

Parameters:

o - Object to which this Volume is to be compared.

Returns:

a negative number, zero, or a positive number as this Volume is numerically less than, equal to, or greater than o, which must be a Volume.

Throws:

ClassCastException - o is not a Volume.

See Also:

compareTo(Volume), Comparable

getValueSI

protected double getValueSI()

Gets the volume in cubic meters.

Specified by:

getValueSI in class AbstractQuantity

Returns:

volume in cubic meters.

getDimensionSI

protected int getDimensionSI()

Gets the SI dimension of this Volume.

Specified by:

getDimensionSI in class AbstractQuantity

Returns:

3 * LENGTH
