For a (normalized) axis \( \vec{a} \), the length of a non-orthogonal line with (normalized) direction \( \vec{u} \) corresponding to grammage \( X \) is given by:
\[ l = \begin{cases} \frac{\lambda}{\vec{u} \cdot \vec{a}} \log\left(Y \right), & \text{if} & Y := 1 + \vec{u} \cdot \vec{a} \frac{X}{\rho_0 \lambda} > 0 \\ \infty & \text{else} & \text{,} \end{cases} \]
where \( \varrho_0 \) is the density at the starting point.
If \( \vec{u} \cdot \vec{a} = 0 \), the calculation is just like for a homogeneous density:
\[ l = \frac{X}{\varrho_0} \]
◆ getIntegratedGrammage()

For a (normalized) axis \( \vec{a} \), the grammage along a non-orthogonal line with (normalized) direction \( \vec{u} \) is given by:
\[ X = \frac{\varrho_0 \lambda}{\vec{u} \cdot \vec{a}} \left( \exp\left( \vec{u} \cdot \vec{a} \frac{l}{\lambda} \right) - 1 \right) \quad \text{,} \]
where \( \varrho_0 \) is the density at the starting point.
If \( \vec{u} \cdot \vec{a} = 0 \), the calculation is just like with a homogeneous density:
\[ X = \varrho_0 l \]
