Hi,
i have a question how to create volume data with complex shaped
elements. An example of the "problem" is using the sphere-source and cut
the resulting sphere you will get only the shell (because polydata is
surface-data!) but not the enclosed volume. On the other side using
unstructured grid data (e.g. for a box) and cut this one you will get
the shell and the volume.
My problem is now i have a set of complex shaped volumes (dual-grid
data) which cannot be found in the list of cell types for unstructured
grid data. Therefore i use the polygonal data and color each cell with
one color. Of course for further analysis (e.g. integration of the cell
volumes, volume gradient and so on) i need a way to give a set of
(closed surface) poly-data elements a kind connection to form a volume
to handle them together.
Is there a way to perform this task?
Stefan
