Hello everyone! I have created a vtk File with point coordinates, and cell definitions. As I am getting distorted surfaces I was wondering what it could be.
The coordinates are nodal coordinates taken from a FE Model. The elements are defined by the IDs of their corresponding nodes. So it looks kinda like this ... CELLS 59256 651816 10 21615 1 32020 21623 2 3 4 21625 5 6 10 21623 21615 1 21624 21625 2 5 21627 21626 7 10 8 21623 21612 21615 9 21631 10 11 21625 21621 10 34096 12 34106 1 13 14 34110 15 16 17 10 22735 18 32680 32663 19 20 21 22 23 32682 ... The 10 indicating the number of information "coming up". So first of all I am little bit confused and would like to know if the cells Information is refering to the prior defined Nodes and their IDs? For example the first line "10 21615 1 32020 21623 2 3 4 21625 5 6" means that the first cell consists of the Nodes 21615, 1, 32020, 21623, 2, 3, 4, 21625, 5 and 6, right? And these nodes are defined like this: ... POINTS 104667 FLOAT 0 0 0 -0.00133054 -0.0651073 0.00296884 -0.00366651 -0.0661655 0.00448453 -0.00430551 -0.0647424 0.00148457 -0.00664148 -0.0658006 0.00300025 -0.00257653 -0.0641143 0.00448451 -0.0055515 -0.0637484 0.00300024 -0.00147854 -0.0663074 0.00448453 -0.00974145 -0.0646966 0.00299095 ... So the second node (1) of the first element would have the coordinates -0.00133054, -0.0651073 and 0.00296884, correct? If someone has an idea I could send you the .vtk-file Thnaks, asaad
