You may also want to look at the Cell Size filter which has the advanced option to globally sum the values. The Integrate Variable filter can give unexpected results with mixed dimension elements since it will integrate all 0D, 1D, 2D and 3D cells. On Fri, Dec 1, 2017 at 5:02 AM, Andrew

Hello. For calculationg volumes and areas, the "Cell Data" attribute type of Integrate variables filter is usable. You don't need to define additional constant field for this. I checked it now and it seems to give the correct domain volume (554 m3 in SolidWorks, 557 m3 in ParaView). The error may

Dear Paraviewers, I'm trying to compute a closed volume in paraview. For that purpose, I define a constant field with value 1 on the domain and use the integrate filter. Unfortunately the result does not seem to be correct. Attached a screenshot of the GUI where I try to compute the volume of

There is always a reason Alan :-) In the case, luckily, the reason is not it is a bug. It is the fact that summing a variable is not integrating a variable. So the filter does that its name implies. If you want to sum a variable, there are other ways. The simplest being the programmable filter

Utkarsh/Berk/All, I have a user that wants to add up all of the forces in a dataset, not volume corrected. Is there a reason that the Integrate Variable filter can't do this (default off)? My user just dumped the raw data as a .csv file and read it into excel, which worked. It would be nicer

Hi Alan, My question is how should the forces be added up? I'm inferring that you mean that the point/cell data array should just be added up. It seems odd to do it like this since small cells don't get weighted proportionally to big cells. If you wanted to do it like this though it seems like
