Hi Angel --
I'm trying to create a visualization for a lattice based Kinetic Monte Carlo
simulation. The lattice points never move, so the only thing that will change
from one frame to another is the ID of each grid point. Most of the iterations
are only diffusion, so an atom moves from one grid site to another, leaving the
entire N-2 other grid sites unchanged. My current solution is to only write a
frame to file if the iteration wasn't a diffusion step.
I'm not sure what would look best... and I guess in the end that will depend on
the final users of my project (not me). The main requirement is that the task
is simple for those people, so at most, I'd like to embed as much as I can in
the input file.
My idea actually was to make a movie file (.mpeg) where each video frame
corresponds to an iteration, and then the user can use like quicktime to watch
the trajectory. But yea, we're going to want to watch it forwards and
backwards, but obviously the movie itself could be created by just moving
forwards...
So would it work to simply change the ID of a grid site, as you recommend, and
then add the frame to a movie? Currently, I've written all my data into an xyz
file, but it sounds like your recommendation is going to end up looking more
like a Jmol script?
I think it might be ok if the user doesn't get to rotate the model around, etc,
since it's 2D anyway.
Amos.
