Hi Asaad,
Please keep the discussion on the mailing list so that everyone can follow
along that wants to.
The issue is that your vtk file is incorrect and the cells are being passed in
as VTK_POLY_VERTEX instead of 10 noded tets. The change for this is to change
the CELL_TYPES value from 2 to 24. The reason that the stream tracer doesn't
work is that the cells have no volume so when the stream tracer tries to find
which cell a seed or point along the streamline belongs to it doesn't and thus
the streamline never begins or ends.
Best,
Andy

Hey Andy!
Yes, no Problem. I attached my vtk file which includes the nodal coordinates
and corresponding IDs. It also includes the definition of my elements which are
10 node tetra elements. And it includes nodal and elemental Force vectors, each
consisting of Fx,Fy and Fz. Each of theses vectors are created with the
qudrature norm of three tensor components. And last but not least this file
includes the Fx force vector consisting of three tensor components(without
quadrature). This force vector is supposed to represent the load path in x
direction. to visualize that load path I want to use the stream tracer filter.
My idea is following the approach of D.W. Kelly (see Load paths and Load Flow
in Finite Element Analysis) and the last attached file has figures that might
show a bit more of what I am trying to achieve.
If you need any additional information please let me know!
Thanks in advance for any kind of hint or help!!
Best wishes,
Asaad

Can you share your dataset and specific information on what you're trying to do
in ParaView?
Cheers,
Andy

Dear Paraview Community,
I have succeded to import my FEM Data (Nodal Coordinates, Element Connectivity
and Nodal Tensions) into Paraview via a self written *.vtk-file.
Now that I finally have my Force Vectors I want to use the stream tracer
filter. But whatever I do ülaying around with the stream tracer settings,
nothing happens.
I don't even get an error message or anything like that. Is there any
additional documentation about the stream tracer filter? Anything else I could
read and can't find on google?
I'd be grateful for any hints, help or critics =)
Thanks a lot!
Asaad
