(output-epsilon) for this structure seems to give me a cross-section, possibly at z=0. I see a white square with a black circle where the metal rod should be.
output-epsilon should give you a 3d dataset corresponding to the full structure.
Probably you are confused by the fact that *h5topng* only gives you a cross section. You can select which cross section by passing different arguments (man h5topng).
That doesn't give me too much info about whether the structure is correct or not. Is there a way to visualize this in 3D? (perhaps an analogue to the one described in the MPB Data Analysis Tutorial?)
Sure. One way is to just look at a bunch of different cross sections with h5topng. Or, you can use h5tovtk and visualize with a 3d tool like mayavi etcetera.
