Re: [Paraview] point to surface

2018-09-25 Thread Moreland, Kenneth via ParaView
Hadrien, I’m not sure what you mean by the “area” of points. As I’m sure you know, particles are 0D elements and themselves have no area to speak of. As you said, you can use the glyph operation to create a surface around each point, but the surface area in that case is simply the surface area

When you close the mailing lists, would it be possible to set it up so that anyone who attempts to email to those addresses gets an email back with a clear message about the mailing lists being closed down and instructions on posting to discourse? -Ken -Original Message- From:

Re: [Paraview] warp by vector field(displacement) with pressure field problem

2018-06-14 Thread Moreland, Kenneth via ParaView
Umit, I took a look at your data, and the warp by vector filter is behaving exactly how I would expect. The displacement field in your data is 0 everywhere except at the top edge. Thus, when you apply the warp the top edge will move and everything else will stay fixed where it is. In the

A, ParaView won’t recognize a column in a table as time. If you instead write out your data as a series of csv files, ParaView will treat each file as a time step and animate through them. So, if you re-write your data in multiple csv files, things get much easier in ParaView. If you don’t

The NetCDF Generic/CF reader has an option named “Output Type” that you can use to force the output to a vtkImageData. Then Cory’s original programmable filter will work, and you won’t have to deal with the coordinates. -Ken From: ParaView on behalf of

Dennis, Yes, this cat has a zipper that allows it's skin to come right off. (Maybe I took that "skin the cat" metaphor a bit too far.) Anyway, just run the Extract Surface filter. After that you can run the Generate Surface Normals filter. -Ken From: ParaView

Sorry for the spam, but we have had many great entries using ParaView to create excellent HPC visualizations, and I though some ParaView users would like this opportunity to showcase your work. As an added bonus, this year accepted entries will get a publication in the Parallel Computing

Re: [Paraview] CSV Files and Volumetric Data

2018-04-04 Thread Moreland, Kenneth
In order for this to work, your CSV file has to contain columns for both the spatial position AND the vectors you want to visualize. It looks like the csv file you are creating is actually only writing out the vector field. To get this to work, your gen_sally function should fill a second array

Hassan, If you are interested in learning how to use ParaView for post processing, I recommend starting with the ParaView Tutorial (https://www.paraview.org/Wiki/The_ParaView_Tutorial). The tutorial does not talk about SU2 specifically, but it teaches basic techniques for visualization,

Re: [Paraview] How to get filled slices of tubes and disks around streamlines

Thomas, I think a better approach to what you are doing is to use the Glyph filter on your streamlines instead of the Tubes filter. After you create your streamlines, perform the following steps. 1. With the stream tracer selected in the pipeline browser, add the glyph filter (it’s icon

Mohammed, The answer to your question depends on a lot of things. Depending on your simulation, it might be easiest if the simulation itself detected when a particle exits the pipe. It is, after all, the thing tracking the particles to begin with. From there it could output its count in a csv
