[Paraview] Help stress tensor visualisation (glyphs)

2010-01-27 Thread J Cook
Hi I recently undertook a project visualising 2nd order symmetrical stress tensors. I am currently looking at how to use Paraview to visualise a structured grid of these tensors using glyphs (either elipsiods or hedgehogs) with data taken from the finite element program MSC NASTRAN. I was wondering

[Paraview] Tensor visualisation using hedgehog vectors (glyphs)

2010-02-04 Thread J Cook
Hi Im looking at using paraview to visualise the 3 eigenvectors and the 3 eigenvalues of a tensor using 3 vector lines at each point in my structured grid aranged in a similar manner to axis lines. The three vector lines are unit vectors which give the direction and are accompanied by 3 magnitudes

[Paraview] Building paraview with shared libraries on

2010-02-19 Thread J Cook
Hi I am currently trying to build paraview from the source code with shared libraries on. I was able to build this code using CMake 2.8.0 and microsoft visual studio 9 before however BUILD_SHARED_LIBS was off. When I turn this value to on I am still able to generate the files in CMake but I get err

[Paraview] Superquadric tensor plugin

2010-02-26 Thread J Cook
Hi all I recently began using the superquadric tensor plugin to visualise an array of stress tensors. I was wondering if there was a way of using the colour of these glyphs to show whether the eigen values are positive or negative (stress in compression or tension)? I was also wondering if it was p
