SMS:Visualization for 3D Solutions
From XMS Wiki
Jump to navigationJump to search
3D solutions can be viewed on a 3D mesh (VTK mesh module). A 3D solution includes data at multiple z layers and becomes a volume. This is not to be confused with displaying 2D results that represent a surface with 3D coordinates. A 2D solution represents depth averaged values and cannot represent a changing solution in the z direction.
3D Fence Diagram
A 3D fence diagram displays solution data on user specified vertical planes. Fences can be useful to illustrate how a 3D solution varies with depth. Multiple fences can be displayed at the same time to help visualization the solution.
Iso-surfaces
Iso-surfaces can be used to display 3D solutions. The display options for iso-surfaces are set using the contour options in the Display Options dialog.
