[Paraview] Non-blocking coprocessing

2016-10-24 Thread Gallagher, Timothy P
Hello again! I'm looking at using coprocessing for something that may take awhile to actually compute, so I would like to do it in a non-blocking fashion. Essentially I am going to be extracting data from the simulation into some numpy arrays (so once copied, the original data in the pipeline

So the “Extract Block” filter should do the trick. Extract the blocks with the truss elements and write that out to a mesh file. -Ken From: Dennis Conklin Date: Monday, October 24, 2016 at 4:33 PM To: "Moreland, Kenneth" , "Paraview

Ken, Actually, I want to get just the truss elements that are embedded in the hex elements and write them out to a mesh file. I’ve been playing in Patran, but I still end up with some trusses sticking out of the solid. So, not rendering, I want to make a new element block which is clipped by

Having the data in multiblock format is good. It is pretty easy to turn blocks on and off. The easiest way to turn of the visibility of a block is to right click it in the 3D view and selected “Hide Block” from the pop-up menu. For somewhat more sophisticated controls, use the Multi-block

The following should work: - Gradient of Unstructured Data Set - Extract Surface - Generate Surface Normals - Calculator filter to compute the wall shear stress from the gradient and the surface normals. On Fri, Oct 21, 2016 at 11:55 PM, Fande Kong wrote: >

Ken, Yes it is a multiblock dataset and the rebar blocks are different than the hex blocks. Dennis From: Moreland, Kenneth [mailto:kmo...@sandia.gov] Sent: Friday, October 21, 2016 10:56 PM To: Dennis Conklin ; Paraview (paraview@paraview.org)
